Dihydroorotate dehydrogenases (DHODs) catalyze the oxidation of dihydroorotate to orotate in the only redox reaction in pyrimidine biosynthesis. The pyrimidine binding sites are very similar in all structurally characterized DHODs, suggesting that the prospects for identifying a class-specific inhibitor directed

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionisation (MALDI) mass spectrometry was investigated for the simultaneous detection of several metabolites, as applicable to global metabolite analysis (metabolomics). The commonly employed organic matrices alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid and 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid, in both the crystalline and ionic liquid forms
A colorimetric, label-free, and nonaggregation-based gold nanoparticles probe has been developed for the detection of melamine. Gold nanoparticles were generated using 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid as a reducer without adding gold nanoparticle seeds at room temperature. Upon the addition of melamine, the

This study presents the optimization and validation of a rapid protocol for quantifying alkyresorcinol (AR) metabolites 3,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHBA) and 3-(3,5-dihydroxyphenyl)-1-propanoic acid (DHPPA) in plasma, using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with a coulometric electrode array detector. Syringic acid (SyrA)
