Enzymatic synthesis of polymers containing nicotinamide mononucleotide

Enzymatic synthesis of polymers containing nicotinamide mononucleotide.

Nicotinamide mononucleoside 5'-diphosphate in its reduced form is an excellent substrate for polynucleotide phosphorylase from Micrococcus luteus both in de novo polymerization reactions and in primer extension reactions. The oxidized form of the diphosphate is a much less efficient substrate; it can be used to extend primers but does not oligomerize in the absence of a primer. The cyanide addu...

Nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase of pig-liver nuclei. The effects of nicotinamide mononucleotide concentration and pH on dinucleotide synthesis.

synthesis of binuclear platinum complexes containing biphosphine ligand

هدف از این مطالعه طراحی یک روش کلی برای سنتز یک سری از کمپلکس های دو هسته ای متقارن سیکلومتاله شده پلاتین (ii) بوده که دارای یک لیگاند پل زن(1,2-bis[bis(pentafluoro-phenyl)phosphino]ethane),dfppe, است. از واکنش cis-[pt(r)2(sme2)2]، که در آنr= para-tolyl ، با یک اکی والان از لیگاند benzo[h]quinoline,bhq، در استون محصول [pt(r)(bhq)(sme2)] که در آن r= para-tolyl بدست می آید. همچنین از واکنش 5/0 اک...

Nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyl transferase-mediated axonal protection requires enzymatic activity but not increased levels of neuronal nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide.

Axonal degeneration is a hallmark of many neurological disorders. Studies in animal models of neurodegenerative diseases indicate that axonal degeneration is an early event in the disease process, and delaying this process can lead to decreased progression of the disease and survival extension. Overexpression of the Wallerian degeneration slow (Wld(s)) protein can delay axonal degeneration init...

Nicotinamide mononucleotide pyrophosphorylase activity in animal tissues.

An enzyme which catalyzes the formation of nicotinamide mononucleotide in the presence of nicotinamide, S-phosphoribosylpyrophosphate, adenosine triphosphate, and Mgff has been purified from rat liver. The reaction is highly specific for ATP and is not substituted for by a variety of nucleotides. Enzymic activity has been found in all of the tissues studied, and in the crude homogenate it is ap...
