The interaction of amino pyrrolopyrimidine nucleotides with enzymes catalyzing different steps in the reaction sequence leading to the incorporation of amino acids into polypeptides has been studied. None of the analogue nucleotides could function as the energy source for activation of amino acids or esterification of transfer RNA (tRNA) by mammalian or bacterial enzymes. Toyocamycin S’-triphos...

There has been an explosion of scientific interest in the health enhancing role of specific foods or physiologically-active food components, the so-called functional foods [1]. It is believed that diet play an important role against neurodegenerative diseases and some functional foods can help t...

Brain injury generates the release of a multitude of factors including extracellular nucleotides, which exhibit bi-functional properties and contribute to both detrimental actions in the acute phase and also protective and reparative actions in the later recovery phase to allow neuroregeneration. A promising strategy toward restoration of neuronal function is based on activation of endogenous a...

A cDNA clone for muscle adenylate kinase was isolated from a cDNA library of chick skeletal muscle poly(A)+ RNA, and the DNA sequence was determined. The cDNA insert had 854 nucleotides, which consisted of the 5'-untranslated sequence of 57 nucleotides, the sequence of 582 nucleotides coding for 194 amino acids, and the 3'-untranslated sequence of 163 nucleotides and the poly(A) tail of 52 nucl...

The effect of more detailed modeling of the interface between stem and loop in non-coding RNA hairpin structures on efficacy of covariance-model-based non-coding RNA gene search is examined. Currently, the prior probabilities of the two stem nucleotides and two loop-end nucleotides at the interface are treated the same as any other stem and loop nucleotides respectively. Laboratory thermodynami...
