Pteridine nucleotide analogs as fluorescent dna probes

TL;DR: In this paper, a pteridine nucleotide which is highly fluorescent under physiological conditions and which may be used in the chemical synthesis of fluorescent oligonucleotides was proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tetrahydrobiopterin biosynthetic activities in human macrophages, fibroblasts, THP-1, and T 24 cells. GTP-cyclohydrolase I is stimulated by interferon-gamma, and 6-pyruvoyl tetrahydropterin synthase and sepiapterin reductase are constitutively present.

TL;DR: Upon interferon-gamma treatment, GTP-cyclohydrolase I activity is increased 7- to 40-fold, whereas 6-pyruvoyl tetrahydropterin synthase and sepiapterin reductase activities, which are constitutively present in all four investigated cells, remain unchanged.
Journal ArticleDOI

The p-nitrophenylethyl (NPE) group: A versatile new blocking group for phosphate and aglycone protection in nucleosides and nucleotides

TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of new monomer building blocks for oligonucleotide synthesis via the phosphotriester approach containing the p -nitrophenylethyl group for phosphate and aglycone protection are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photolabile protecting groups for nucleosides: Synthesis and photodeprotection rates

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of 5'-O-protected thymidine derivatives irradiated at 365 nm under identical conditions were tested for photolabile protection of nucleoside 5'-hydroxyls.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure of a Novel Oligosaccharide-Mycosporine-Amino Acid Ultraviolet A/B Sunscreen Pigment from the Terrestrial Cyanobacterium Nostoc commune

TL;DR: Water-soluble UV-A/B-absorbing pigments secreted by cells of the cosmopolitan terrestrial cyanobacterium Nostoc commune are the first mycosporines to be described covalently linked to oligosaccharides.
