Several nucleoside analogs are potent inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) in cell culture. However, in many cases the nucleoside derivatives have a poor affinity for nucleoside kinases. Nucleoside 5′-phosphorothioates is relatively resistant to enzymatic transformations. In this paper, 2′,3′-O-alkoxymethylidene adenosine 5′-thiophosphoramidates were synthesized through a highly efficient approach. The new compounds were characterized by NMR, IR and ESI-MS.展开更多

Inhibition of both wile-type PKR or 2'5' oligoadenylate synthetase is reversed by adding higher concentrations of double-stranded RNA. These results suggest competition between PKR K296R and wild-type PKR or 2'5' oligoadenylate synthetase for limiting amounts of dublestranded RNA. Moreover,the data imply that the tumourigenic effect of this PKR mutant could be due to inhibition of additional pathways requiring low levels of double-strandeed RNA for activation and cannot be unambiguously attributed to inhibition of endogenous PKR itself.展开更多

Although some exchange of precursors occurs, cytosolic sesquiterpenes are assumed to derive mainly from MVA, while plastidial monoterpenes are produced preferentially from MEP precursors. Additional complexity arises in the first step of the MEP pathway, which is typically catalyzed by two divergent 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate synthase isoforms （DXS1, DXS2）. In tomato （Solanum lycopersicum）, the SIDXS1 gene is ubiquitously expressed with highest levels during fruit ripening, whereas SIDXS2 transcripts are abundant in only few tissues, including young leaves, petals, and isolated trichomes. Specific down-regulation of SIDXS2 expression was performed by RNA interference in transgenic plants to investigate feedback mechanisms. SIDXS2 down-regulation led to a decrease in the monoterpene β-phellandrene and an increase in two sesquiterpenes in trichomes. Moreover, incorporation of MVA-derived precursors into residual monoterpenes and into sesquiterpenes was elevated as determined by comparison of ^13C to ^12C natural isotope ratios. A compensatory up-regulation of SIDXS1 was not observed. Down-regulated lines also exhibited increased trichome density and showed less damage by leaf-feeding Spodoptera littoralis caterpillars. The results reveal novel, non-redundant roles of DXS2 in modulating isoprenoid metabolism and a pronounced plasticity in isoprenoid precursor allocation.展开更多
