Opposite effects of uracil and adenine nucleotides on the survival of murine cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2007 AbstractWe previously showed that the human heart expresses all known P2X and P2Y receptors activated by extra‐cellular adenine or uracil nucleotides. Despite evidence that, both in humans and rodents, plasma levels of ATP and UTP markedly increase during myocardial infarction, the differential effects mediated by the various adenine‐ and uracil ...

An uracil-linked hydroxyflavone probe for the recognition of ATP [PDF]
Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2018 Background: Nucleotides are essential molecules in living systems due to their paramount importance in various physiological processes. In the past years, numerous attempts were made to selectively recognize and detect these analytes, especially ATP ...

APOBEC3 activity and DNA polymerase-ε deficiency are associated with distinct IDH1 R132 hotspot mutations. [PDF]
Mol OncolIsocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutations are highly recurrent in multiple human cancer types, including cholangiocarcinoma and glioma. IDH1 R132C is the most common IDH1 mutation in cholangiocarcinoma and likely arises from APOBEC3A‐ or APOBEC3B‐mediated deamination.

Ribonucleotides Amplify Mitochondrial DNA-Driven cGAS-STING Activation via FdUMP-ribonucleotide Hybrid Particles to Potentiate Chemoimmunotherapy. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)This work develops a metabolic sharing strategy that employs cytidine monophosphate (CMP) to competitively reprogram floxuridine (FUDR) pyrimidine metabolism in colorectal tumor cells. Elevated intracellular FdUMP induces nucleotide imbalance, drives mitochondrial DNA release and cGAS‐STING innate immune cascade activation, and potentiates robust ...

Characterization of carABpyrB operon and role of pyrE in Francisella novicida biofilm. [PDF]
MicrobiologyopenPyrimidine biosynthesis links metabolism to biofilm regulation in Francisella novicida. During nutrient limitation, reduced pyrimidine availability shifts metabolism from uracil salvage to de novo synthesis, increasing biofilm formation. Mutants in carABpyrB exhibit uracil‐dependent growth defects and elevated biofilm:growth ratios, revealing ...

Stem Cell Research & Therapy, 2023 Background Endogenously released adenine and uracil nucleotides favour the osteogenic commitment of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSCs) through the activation of ATP-sensitive P2X7 and UDP-sensitive P2Y6 receptors.

The Importance of the Fifth Nucleotide in DNA: Uracil
, 2023 Uracil is a ribonucleotide found in both DNA and RNA, with the main difference between the two being the presence of thymine in DNA and uracil in RNA. Although thymine and uracil are similar in function and can form the same base pairs with adenine, the presence of uracil in DNA can affect DNA stability and modulate cell-specific functions.

Statistical analysis of readthrough levels for nonsense mutations in mammalian cells reveals a major determinant of response to gentamicin. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2012 The efficiency of translation termination depends on the nature of the stop codon and the surrounding nucleotides. Some molecules, such as aminoglycoside antibiotics (gentamicin), decrease termination efficiency and are currently being evaluated for ...

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022 A deleterious variant of FCHSD1 results in mTOR pathway overactivation and may cause porto‐sinusoidal vascular disorder (PSVD). The pedigree of the family demonstrated an autosomal dominant disease with variable expressivity. Whole‐genome sequencing and Sanger sequencing both validated the existence of the FCHSD1 variant and the heterozygosity of c ...
