The Hb-O2 affinity and the erythropoietic response as a function of time were studied in mice treated with sodium cyanate for up to 2 months. Cyanate increased the Hb-O2 affinity in normoxic mice more than in chronically hypoxic mice. The

Carbamylation is a non-enzymatic post-translational modification that physiologically occurs during aging and is a risk factor for various diseases. The most common product of carbamylation is homocitrulline (HCit), where a lysine (Lys) amino group has reacted with urea-derived cyanate. HCit has recently been detected

Sodium cyanate, a neurotoxic chemical in rodents, primates and humans, is implicated in neurodegenerative disorders in protein-deficient populations subsisting in parts of Africa on the cyanogenic plant cassava. The molecular and cellular mechanisms of cyanate neurotoxicity are not understood. This

The first step of pyrimidine synthesis along the orotate pathway is studied to test the hypothesis of geochemical continuity of protometabolic pathways at the origins of life. Carbamoyl phosphate (CP) is the first high-energy building block that intervenes in the

An efficient synthesis of aryl carbamates was achieved by introducing alcohols into the reaction of palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling of ArX (X = Cl, OTf) with sodium cyanate. The use of aryl triflates as electrophilic components in this transformation allowed for an
