Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemistry and Biology of Nucleosides and Nucleotides is a collection of papers presented at the symposium on the Chemistry and Biology of Nucleosides and Nucleotides, held on August 30-September 1, 1976, as part of the San Francisco Centennial Meeting of the Carbohydrate Division of the American Chemical Society. Contributors explore the chemistry and biology of nucleosides and nucleotides ans well as the different chemical and instrumental techniques used in their synthesis. This book is comprised of 28 chapters and begins by describing the synthesis of a gene and its introduction into a biological system where it proved to be functional. The synthesis of nucleosides and nucleotides with anticancer and antiviral activity is also discussed, along with the rationale for the design and synthesis of such compounds. Simple models of nucleic acid interactions are described. Subsequent chapters explore the chemistry and biological activity of C-nucleosides related to pseudouridine and of some nucleoside analogs active against tumor cells; the selectivity and stereospecificity of the ribosylation reaction; synthesis of C-glycosyl thiazoles; and C-nucleoside isosteres of some nucleoside antibiotics. This monograph will serve as reference and source material for many workers in biomedical research as teaching material for instructors of advanced science courses.

Download or read book The Role of Nonliving Organic Matter in the Earth s Carbon Cycle written by Richard G. Zepp and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1995-07-11 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonliving organic matter (NLOM) comprises the bulk of the organic carbon stored in the terrestrial biosphere and a major part of the organic carbon in the sea. Organic substances, which include litter, marine detritus, dissolved organic matter, and soil organic matter, have diverse effects on the Earth's biogeochemical processes and serve as a major reservoir of biospheric carbon, which can be transformed to carbon dioxide, methane, and other "greenhouse" gases. Given this broad spectrum of effects, efforts to adapt to or perhaps benefit from global change require a better understanding and an ability to predict the role of NLOM in the global environment. The overall objective of this volume is to provide experimental and modeling strategies for the assessment of the sensitivity of the global carbon cycle to changes in nonliving organic pools in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. The discussions in this volume consider how best to characterize and quantify pools and fluxes of NLOM, the role of NLOM cycling on a global scale, human and climatic perturbations of interactions between NLOM and nutrients, and biological, chemical, and physical processes that control the production and degradation of NLOM, with an emphasis on processes that affect the persistence of NLOM in the environment. One of the most unique aspects of this volume is that it represents extensive exchanges between leading international scientists from both aquatic and terrestrial backgrounds. It will be of particular interest to organic geochemists, microbiologists, ecologists, soil scientists, agricultural scientists, marine chemists, limnologists, and modelers. Goal of this Dahlem Workshop: to devise experimental and modeling strategies for assessment of the sensitivity of the global carbon cycle to changes in nonliving organic pools.
Download or read book Mechanisms of DNA Damage and Repair written by Michael G. Simic and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 567 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on the papers presented at the conference on "Mecha nisms of DNA Damage and Repair: Implications for Carcinogenesis and Risk Assessment," held at the National Bureau of Standards on June 2-7, 1985, This volume deals with mechanisms of DNA damage and repair at the molecular level; consequences of unrepaired or misrepaired damage, with major emphasis on carcinogenesis; drugs which bind selectively to altered and potentially damaging DNA sequences; and potential utilization of DNA damage as an endpoint for assessing risks of UV light, ionizing radiations, chemicals, drugs, and hazardous agents in foods. Because the induction of mutations by radiation and genotoxic chemicals has been observed to follow one-hit kinetics in some instances, it is generally assumed that any level of exposure to a DNA-damaging agent may increase the risk of genetic disease or cancer in an exposed population. At the same time, however, there is evidence that although the DNA of living cells is continually damaged by natural background radiation, free radicals, and other naturally occurring processes, most of the damage is normally repaired.

Each contribution is written by a recognized authority in his field and provides a comprehensive and up-to-date review of the topic in question. Addressed to biologists, technologists, and chemists alike, the series can be used by the expert as a source of information and literature citations and by the non-expert as a means of orientation in a rapidly developing discipline.
Download or read book Bioinorganic Chemistry written by D.P. Kessissoglou and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bioinorganic chemistry is primarily concerned with the role of metal atoms in biology and is a very active research field. However, even though such important structures of metalloenzymes are known, as the MoFeCo of nitrogenase, Cu or Mn superoxide dismutase and plastocyanin, the synthetic routes to the modelling of such centers remains a matter of acute scientific interest. Other metalloenzymes, such as the Mn center of the oxygen evolving complex of PSII, are still the focus of in-depth examination, both spectroscopic and structural. Another area of concern is the interaction between drugs and metals and metal ion antagonism. Understanding the chemistry of metal ions in biological systems will bring benefits in terms of understanding such problems as biomineralization and the production of advanced materials by micro-organisms. The 29 contributions to Bioinorganic Chemistry: An Inorganic Perspective of Life give an excellent summary of the state of the art in this field, covering areas from the NMR of paramagnetic molecules to the use of lanthanide porphyrins in artificial batteries.
