Increased excretion of modified adenine nucleosides by children with adenosine deaminase deficiency.

Pediatr. Res. 16(5) , 362-9, (1982)

We have identified seven adenine nucleosides in urines of untreated adenosine deaminase (ADA) deficient patients, four of which (adenosine, 2'-deoxyadenosine, 1-methyladenosine and N6-methyladenosine) have been previously identified in urines of normals and/o...

Stabilizing effects of the RNA 2'-substituent: crystal structure of an oligodeoxynucleotide duplex containing 2'-O-methylated adenosines.

Chem. Biol. 1(1) , 39-45, (1994)

The stability of hybrids of 2'-O-methyl-ribonucleotides with complementary RNA is considerably higher than that of the corresponding DNA.RNA duplexes. The 2'-O-modified ribonucleotides are thus an attractive class of compounds for antisense applications. Unde...

Effect of PGE2 and of agents that raise cAMP levels on macrophage activation induced by IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha.

J. Leukoc. Biol. 58(2) , 217-24, (1995)

The effect of prostaglandin (PG) E2 on macrophage activation by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) was evaluated. Murine macrophages infected with Leishmania enriettii or Leishmania major were activated by exposure to IFN...

Liver-targeted prodrugs of 2'-C-methyladenosine for therapy of hepatitis C virus infection.

J. Med. Chem. 50(16) , 3891-6, (2007)

2'-C-Methyladenosine exhibits impressive inhibitory activity in the cell-based hepatitis C virus (HCV) subgenomic replicon assay, by virtue of intracellular conversion to the corresponding nucleoside triphosphate (NTP) and inhibition of NS5B RNA-dependent RNA...

A simple method of the preparation of 2'-O-methyladenosine. Methylation of adenosine with methyl iodide in anhydrous alkaline medium.

Biochim. Biophys. Acta 629(1) , 178-83, (1980)

A simple and effective method of the methylation on the 2'-O position of adenosine is described. Adenosine is treated with CH3I in an anhydrous alkaline medium at 0 degrees C for 4 h. The major products of this reaction are monomethylated adenosine at either ...

Posttranscriptional modification of tRNA in thermophilic archaea (Archaebacteria).

J. Bacteriol. 173 , 3138, (1991)

Nucleoside modification has been studied in unfractionated tRNA from 11 thermophilic archaea (archaebacteria), including phylogenetically diverse representatives of thermophilic methanogens and sulfur-metabolizing hyperthermophiles which grow optimally in the...

Adenosine and its derivatives inhibit the cAMP signaling response in Dictyostelium discoideum.

Dev. Biol. 106(1) , 166-73, (1984)

In developmentally competent Dictyostelium discoideum amoebae, binding of cAMP to high-affinity surface receptors produces a rapid activation of adenylate cyclase which adapts within minutes. The result is a transient increase in intracellular cAMP which is r...

Interactions of oligonucleotide analogs containing methylphosphonate internucleotide linkages and 2'-O-methylribonucleosides.

Nucleic Acids Res. 22(21) , 4497-503, (1994)

The interactions of oligonucleotide analogs, 12-mers, which contain deoxyribo- or 2'-O-methylribose sugars and methylphosphonate internucleotide linkages with complementary 12-mer DNA and RNA targets and the effect of chirality of the methylphosphonate linkag...

[Substrate specificity of adenosine deaminase. The role of methyl groups at 2', 3', and 5'-carbon atoms of adenosine].

Bioorg. Khim. 14(9) , 1157-61, (1988)

The substrate specifity of adenosine deaminase has been studied using C'-methyl derivatives of adenosine. On the basis of the correlation revealed between conformations of 2'- and 3'-C-methyladenosine and their substrate properties, a modified stereochemical ...
