Effect of uridine protecting groups on the diastereoselectivity of uridine-derived aldehyde 5’-alkynylation

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2017
The 5’-alkynylation of uridine-derived aldehydes is described. The addition of alkynyl Grignard reagents on the carbonyl group is significantly influenced by the 2’,3’-di-O-protecting groups (R1): O-alkyl groups led to modest diastereoselectivities (65 ...

Case Report: Rapid Treatment of Uridine-Responsive Epileptic Encephalopathy Caused by CAD Deficiency

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
We present two unrelated Chinese patients with CAD deficiency manifesting with a triad of infantile-onset psychomotor developmental delay with regression, drug-refractory epilepsy, and anaemia with anisopoikilocytosis.

Low Turnover of Soil Bacterial rRNA at Low Temperatures

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is used widely to investigate potentially active microorganisms in environmental samples, including soil microorganisms and other microbial communities that are subjected to pronounced seasonal variation in temperature. This raises a

Lactobacillus plantarum Ameliorates High-Carbohydrate Diet-Induced Hepatic Lipid Accumulation and Oxidative Stress by Upregulating Uridine Synthesis

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
The overconsumption of carbohydrates induces oxidative stress and lipid accumulation in the liver, which can be alleviated by modulation of intestinal microbiota; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear.

Crystal structure of 5-(dibenzofuran-4-yl)-2′-deoxyuridine

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section E: Crystallographic Communications, 2017
The molecule of the title compound, C21H18N2O6, has a bent rather than a linear conformation supported by three intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds. The packing in the crystal lattice is largely determined by interactions between hydrogen atoms with ...

Abiotic production of sugar phosphates and uridine ribonucleoside in aqueous microdroplets

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017
Significance Phosphorylation is essential for life. Phosphorylated molecules play diverse functions in cells, including metabolic (e.g., sugar phosphates), structural (e.g., phospholipids), and instructional (e.g., RNA and DNA).

BCL-2 family protein BOK is a positive regulator of uridine metabolism in mammals

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance It is believed that the Bcl-2 family protein Bok has a redundant role similar to Bax and Bak in regulating apoptosis. We report that this protein interacts with the key enzyme involved in uridine biosynthesis, uridine monophosphate ...

Honey as Source of Nitrogen Compounds: Aromatic Amino Acids, Free Nucleosides and Their Derivatives

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
The content of selected major nitrogen compounds including nucleosides and their derivatives was evaluated in 75 samples of seven varieties of honey (heather, buckwheat, black locust, goldenrod, canola, fir, linden) by targeted ultra-high performance ...

Microbial efficacy and two step synthesis of uridine derivatives with spectral characterization

open access: yesACTA Pharmaceutica Sciencia, 2019
Uridine is a natural nucleoside precursor of uridine monophosphate in organisms and thus is considered to be safe and is used in a wide range of clinical settings. The farreaching effects of pharmacological uridine have long been neglected.

Wobble uridine modifications–a reason to live, a reason to die?!

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2017
Wobble uridines (U34) are generally modified in all species. U34 modifications can be essential in metazoans but are not required for viability in fungi. In this review, we provide an overview on the types of modifications and how they affect the physico-
