Nucleotide Metabolism – Purines and Pyrimidines
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Nucleotide metabolism results in the synthesis of the four nucleotides that form DNA. These are further divided in two categories: purines and pyrimidines. Their construction and degradation takes place in a progression of single steps, while different enzymes and cofactors are involved in the process. Beside degradation, there is also a form of reprocessing purine and pyrimidine nucleotides, defined as Salvage-pathways.

In the current study, phylogenetic analysis and molecular evolution of the mammalian’s Leptin was investigated. Data was achieved and aligned by searching its genome database, while all examined mammals contained only a single copy of the Leptin. The nucleotide substitution rate of the sequences and molecular evolution of the Leptin were calculated by maximum likelihood and neighbor-joinin...

متن کاملSYNTHESIS OF 4,4'-BIS-PYRIMIDINES AND SOME RELATED BIS-FUSED PYRIMIDINES
2,2'-Disubstitutedamino-4-4'-bis-pyrimidines (3a-m) have been prepared by linking 2,4-dichloro-6-methyl-5-nitropyrimidine (1) with several diamines and subsequent reaction with suitable amines. Some of these compounds (3c and 3j) which were reduced catalitically, on treatment with nitrous acid, urea in pyridine, and boiling thionyl chloride gave the corresponding bistriazolopyrimidin (6), ...
متن کاملPurine and pyrimidine metabolism by estuarine bacteria
Nucleotide bases are ubiquitous in living organisms, but the fate of these compounds in natural environments is poorly understood. Here we studied the metabolism of selected purines and pyrimidines in estuarine bacterial assemblages from the Øresund, Denmark. Depletion of nucleotide bases in the incubations was followed by the appearance of urea. The purine guanine and the catabolic intermediat...
