  1. 1. Deoxyribonucleoside kinases in bacteria, plants and humans

    Författare :Anders Ranegaard Clausen; Biologiska institutionen; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; anti-viral drugs; gene therapy; cancer; evolution; nucleoside analog; deoxyribonucleoside kinase; thymidine kinase;

    Sammanfattning : Deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs) are the building blocks of DNA and can be synthesized either de novo or via salvage pathways. The first reaction in the salvage pathway of dNTPs is the conversion of deoxyribonucleosides (dN) into the deoxyribonucleoside monophosphate (dNMP). LÄS MER

  3. 2. Targeting the nucleotide metabolism of the mammalian pathogen Trypanosoma brucei

    Författare :Munender Vodnala; Anders Hofer; Arne Holmgren; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Trypanosoma brucei; adenosine kinase; thymidine kinase; methylthioadenosine phosphorylase; mouser ribonucleotide reductase; E. coli ribonucleotide reductase; RNR; Ara-A; F-Ara-A; dNTP; NTP; doexynucleotide metabolism; nucleosides; nucleoside kinases; allosteric regulation; biologisk kemi; biological chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : Trypanosoma brucei causes African sleeping sickness in humans and Nagana in cattle. There are no vaccines available against the disease and the current treatment is also not satisfactory because of inefficacy and numerous side effects of the used drugs.T. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Deradicalising Giardiasis Treatment

    Författare :Sascha Krakovka; Staffan Svärd; Jon Jerlström-Hultqvist; Norbert Müller; Uppsala universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : Giardia intestinalis is a unicellular parasite causing the disease giardiasis. This disease is mostly prevalent in low resource settings, mandating low-cost treatment options. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Studies on the antiproliferative action of interferon : effects on proteins synthesized in the G1 and S phase of the cell cycle in 2 anchorage-dependent cell lines

    Författare :Dan Lundblad; Erik Lundgren; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Interferon; Glioma; Antiproliferative effect; DNA polymerase; Thymidine kinase; 2 -5 oligo A; Protein synthesis; Two-dimensional electrophorensis; Mouse fibroblasts; C-myc; KI-67 antigen;

    Sammanfattning : Interferons (IFNs) are a class of structurally related proteins first discovered to be produced by virus-infected cells. By now, several other inducing agents have been described. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Studies of enzymes in mitochondrial DNA precursor synthesis : regulatory mechanisms for human thymidine kinase 2 and deoxyguanosine kinase

    Författare :Ren Sun; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : As important enzymes in mitochondrial nucleotide salvage pathway, thymidine kinase 2 (TK2) and deoxyguanosine kinase (dGK) are expressed constitutively in almost all cells. These two enzymes catalyze the initial rate-limiting phosphorylation of pyrimidine and purine deoxynucleosides, respectively, providing DNA precursors for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication.
