This image illustrates the chemical structure of a purine molecule, highlighting the numbering of the carbon and nitrogen atoms. The purine structure consists of a pyrimidine ring (positions 1 to 6) ...
While most enzymatic activity is conducted through chemical binding interactions between molecules, in some cases, the mere presence of an enzyme can affect intracellular functions. While exploring ...
Inside every cell, a finely tuned metabolic network determines when to build, recycle, or stop producing essential molecules. A central part of this network is folate metabolism, a process that ...
A world-first discovery, published in the journal Science, rewrites our understanding of how cells control the production of DNA’s building blocks - and how this process affects the response to widely ...

Depurination of DNA and RNA sequences is an alteration of the sugar-phosphate backbone in which hydrolysis of a purine base (adenine or guanine) occurs. Synthetic oligonucleotides suffer from such ...
