Characterization of hOGG1 Promoter Structure, Expression During Cell Cycle and Overexpression in Mammalian Cells
2001
Oxygen radicals are produced in all cells either by the normal cellular metabolism or by the exposure to external mutagens. The reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated can induce DNA damage. Among the principal lesions found in DNA due to ROS is an oxidized form of guanine, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG). The biological relevance of this lesion has been unveiled by the study of Escherichia colt and Saccharomyces cerevisiae genes involved in the neutralization of the mutagenic effects of 8-oxoG (Cabrera et al., 1988; Nghiem et al., 1988; Radicella et al., 1988; van der Kemp et al., 1996). These genes fpg and mutY for E. colt and OGG1 for yeast, code for DNA glycosylases. Inactivation of a…
A Facile Synthesis of New 3-Substituted-2,3- dihydropyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidine-2,4-diones
2004
Abstract Pyrido[3,2-d]pyrimidine-2,4-diones derivatives have been synthesized in good yields by two efficient synthetic routes, the first one through an hetero-cyclization on the ureas derivatives 3a–e under alkaline conditions, the second one by condensation of the isocyanate 2 with various arylalkylamines in pyridine.
[39] DNA damage induced by ultraviolet and visible light and its wavelength dependence
2000
Publisher Summary DNA damage induced by solar radiation in mammalian cells consists largely of two types of modification: pyrimidine dimers and oxidative modifications. Pyrimidine dimmers that can be subdivided into cyclobutane pyrimidine dimmers, (CPDs) and (6-4) photoproducts are the characteristic and most abundant modifications after direct excitation of DNA, although they can also be formed indirectly by energy transfer from other excited molecules such as carbonyl compounds. Oxidative DNA damage, which includes various pyrimidine and purine modifications, sites of base loss (AP sites), and strand breaks, is generated in only low yield after direct excitation of DNA (except at very sho…
Cyclobutane Pyrimidine Photodimerization of DNA/RNA Nucleobases in the Triplet State
2010
The photoinduced formation of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers in the triplet excited state of the DNA/RNA pyrimidine nucleobases pairs has been studied at the CASPT2 level of theory. A stepwise mechanism through the triplet state of the homodimer is proposed for the pairs of nucleobases cytosine, thymine, and uracil involving a singlet−triplet crossing intermediary structure of biradical character representing the most favorable triplet state conformation of the nucleobases as found in the DNA environment. The efficiency of the mechanism will be modulated by two factors: the effectiveness of the triplet−triplet energy transfer process from a donor photosensitizer molecule, which relates to th…
Crystal structure of 3-mesityl-1-[(pyridin-2-yl)methyl]-3,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-1-ium bromide monohydrate
2015
In the title hydrated salt, C19H24N3+·Br−·H2O, the values of the N—C bond lengths within the tetrahydropyrimidinium ring indicate delocalization of the N=C double bond. In the cation, the dihedral angle formed by the pyridine and benzene rings is 14.97 (12)°. In the crystal, ions and water molecules are linked by O—H...Br, O—H...N, C—H...Br and C—H...O hydrogen bonds into chains running parallel to thebaxis.
6-Amino-2-iminiumyl-4-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrimidin-5-aminium sulfate monohydrate
2019
The title compound, C4H9N5O2+·SO4 2−·H2O, is the monohydrate of the commercially available compound `C4H7N5O·H2SO4·xH2O'. It is obtained by reprecipitation of C4H7N5O·H2SO4·xH2O from dilute sodium hydroxide solution with dilute sulfuric acid. The crystal structure of anhydrous 2,4,5-triamino-1,6-dihydropyrimidin-6-one sulfate is known, although called by the authors 5-amminium-6-amino-isocytosinium sulfate [Bieri et al. (1993). Private communication (refcode HACDEU). CCDC, Cambridge, England]. In the structure, the sulfate group is deprotonated, whereas one of the amino groups is protonated (R 2C—NH3 +) and one is rearranged to a protonated imine group (R 2C=NH2 +). This arrangement is very…
5-Acetyl-6-methyl-4-phenyl-1-(prop-2-ynyl)-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one
2017
The 4-dihydropyrimidin-2(1H)-one moiety of the title molecule, C16H16N2O2, displays a half-chair conformation. The least-squares mean plane through this heterocycle is almost perpendicular to the aromatic ring [dihedral angle = 89.52 (8)°] and to the prop-2-ynyl chain [C—C—N—C torsion angle of −73.2 (2)°]. The mean plane through the acetyl group makes a dihedral angle of 30.93 (10)° with the mean plane of the heterocycle. There is an intramolecular C—H...O hydrogen bond forming anS(6) ring motif. In the crystal, molecules are linked by pairs of N—H...O hydrogen bonds forming inversion dimers.
Meticilīna rezistences noteikšana Staphylococcus epidermidis (MRSE) starp veseliem iedzīvotājiem
2020
Ievads. Pēdējos gados ir manāmi pieaugusi Staphylococcus epidermidis un S. aureus izraisītās intrahospitālās infekcijas. Kā parāda ASV statistikas dati, tad laika posmā no 1980. Gadam līdz 1990. Gadam, tad S. epidermidis izraisītās nozokomiālās infekcijas ir pieaugušas četras reizes (Banerjee et al.). Literatūra vēsta arī to, ka S. epidermidis ir atbildīts par lielu daļu nozokomiālo infekciju, kas izraisa bakterēmijā, kas saistītas ar svešķermeņu un dažādu medicīnas iekārtu ievietošanu cilvēka ķermenī (Huebner, 1999). Kā arī koagulāzes negatīvie stafilokoki ir bieži endokardīta izraisītāji. (Caputo, 1987). Pētījuma mērķis. Noskaidrot meticilīna rezistento S. epidermidis (MRSE) baktēriju nēs…
