Jones and coworkers demonstrated a qualitative correlation between 5-azacytidine and some of its analogs in inducing changes in cell morphology and their ability in preventing DNA methylation. Previously, we evaluated the same compounds to determine their ability to induce trifluorothymidine

Bolus doses of 5-chlorodeoxycytidine (CldC) administered with modulators of pyrimidine metabolism, followed by X-irradiation, resulted in a 2-fold dose increase effect against RIF-1 tumors in C3H mice. Pool size studies of the fate of [14C]-CldC in BDF1 mice bearing Sarcoma-180

A DNA (cytosine)-5-methyltransferase from Haemophilus aegyptius (M.Hae III), which catalyzes methyl transfer from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to DNA, has been crystallized as a covalent complex with a suicide oligonucleotide substrate. Crystals of the co-complex were grown by vapor diffusion with hanging droplets

The metabolic products formed and incorporated into the nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) of mice bearing Lewis lung carcinoma (LLC) following optimal doses of 5-fluorouracil (FUra), 5-fluoro-2'-deoxyuridine (FdUrd), and 5-fluoro-2'-deoxycytidine (FdCyd) coadministered with tetrahydrouridine (H4Urd), a potent inhibitor of cytidine

Biochemical and biophysical research communications, 196(2), 864-871 (1993-10-29)
A new class of affinity labels has been developed for human DNA (cytosine-5) methyltransferases. These oligodeoxynucleotides contain 5-fluorodeoxycytidine at a mispair within the recognition motif of the human enzyme. They were not effectively recognized by bacterial methyltransferases. They can be
