Cytidine metabolism in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae was analyzed by genetic and biochemical approaches. Disruption of a unique ORF (Genbank accession No. U 20865) bearing homology with eucaryotic or bacterial cytidine deaminases abolished cytidine deaminase activity and resulted in 5-fluorocytidine
The clinical emergence of lamivudine and adefovir resistance mutations on prolonged therapy further necessitates the development of additional drugs for the treatment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections. We have evaluated a number of novel 2'-fluoro-2',3'-unsaturated D- and L-nucleosides for
The effects of 5-fluorocytidine on ribosomal RNA maturation and structure in Novikoff hepatoma cells were investigated. Like other nucleic acid base analogues that are incorporated into RNA, this compound inhibits maturation of the 45S ribosomal RNA precursor. The 45S RNA

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the adenovirus-mediated double suicide gene (CD/TK) for selective killing of gastric cancer cells. Gastric cancer cells SCG7901 and normal gastric epithelial cell lines were infected by adenoviruses Ad-survivin/GFP and

5'-O-Glucuronides of anticancer nucleosides, 5-fluorouridine and 5-fluorocytidine, were synthesized by three different methods. The best preparative procedure was the one starting from benzyl 5-O-(methyl 2', 3', 4'-tri-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranosyluronate)-2,3-O-isopropylidene-beta-D-ribof uranoside (15) that was obtained almost quantitatively by condensation of benzyl 2,3-O-isopropylidene-beta-D-ribofuranoside (8)
