Binding Modes of Xanthine‐Derived Selective Allosteric Site Inhibitors of MTHFD2
Methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (MTHFD2) is a mitochondrial enzyme involved in 1 C metabolism that is upregulated in various cancer cells, but absent in normal proliferating cells. Xanthine derivatives are the first selective inhibitors of MTHFD2

Determination of Flavin Potential in Proteins by Xanthine/Xanthine Oxidase Method
This protocol describes a simple xanthine/xanthine oxidase enzymatic equilibration method for determination of the redox potential of a flavin. As an example of the use of this method, we determine the reduction potential of the covalently bound FAD ...

Some opportunities of using xanthine oxidase inhibitors
The review presents modern concepts of the role of xanthine oxidase (XO) in the pathogenesis of a number of diseases. It has been shown that XO activity can be associated with the development and progression not only of gout, but, possibly, diabetes ...
