Cytosine-to-Uracil Deamination by SssI DNA Methyltransferase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The prokaryotic DNA(cytosine-5)methyltransferase M.SssI shares the specificity of eukaryotic DNA methyltransferases (CG) and is an important model and experimental tool in the study of eukaryotic DNA methylation.

Expression of microRNAs in Horse Plasma and Their Characteristic Nucleotide Composition. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) in blood plasma are stable under high levels of ribonuclease activity and could function in tissue-to-tissue communication, suggesting that they may have distinctive structural characteristics compared with non-circulating miRNAs.

High expression of uracil DNA glycosylase determines C to T substitution in human pluripotent stem cells

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2022
Precise genome editing of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) is crucial not only for basic science but also for biomedical applications such as ex vivo stem cell therapy and genetic disease modeling.

Tools and drugs for uracil nucleotide-activated P2Y receptors

open access: yesPharmacology & Therapeutics, 2018
P2Y receptors (P2YRs) are a family of G protein-coupled receptors activated by extracellular nucleotides. Physiological P2YR agonists include purine and pyrimidine nucleoside di- and triphosphates, such as ATP, ADP, UTP, UDP, nucleotide sugars, and dinucleotides.

Characterization of Escherichia coli double-strand uracil-DNA glycosylase and analysis of uracil-initiated base excision DNA repair [PDF]

open access: yes
Escherichia coli double-strand uracil-DNA glycosylase (Dug) was purified to apparent homogeneity from bacteria that were defective in uracil-DNA glycosylase (Ung). After cloning the dug gene, recombinant Dug was overexpressed, purified, and characterized

Northern Blot of tRNA in Yeast

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2013
tRNAs are small RNAs around 70-90 nt. tRNAs are different from many other small RNAs in that they are very abundant, which makes it difficult to study their transcriptional regulation by traditional northern blot.

Turning On Uracil-DNA Glycosylase Using a Pyrene Nucleotide Switch [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2001
Base flipping is a highly conserved process by which enzymes swivel an entire nucleotide from the DNA base stack into their active site pockets. Uracil DNA glycosylase (UDG) is a paradigm enzyme that uses a base flipping mechanism to catalyze the hydrolysis of the N-glycosidic bond of 2'-deoxyuridine (2'-dUrd) in DNA as the first step in uracil base ...

Simultaneous quantification of 12 different nucleotides and nucleosides released from renal epithelium and in human urine samples using ion-pair reversed-phase HPLC [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Nucleotides and nucleosides are not only involved in cellular metabolism but also act extracellularly via P1 and P2 receptors, to elicit a wide variety of physiological and pathophysiological responses through paracrine and autocrine signalling pathways.

The Orphan Receptor GPR17 Is Unresponsive to Uracil Nucleotides and Cysteinyl Leukotrienes [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Pharmacology, 2017
Pairing orphan G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) with their cognate endogenous ligands is expected to have a major impact on our understanding of GPCR biology. It follows that the reproducibility of orphan receptor ligand pairs should be of fundamental importance to guide meaningful investigations into the pharmacology and function of individual ...
