  2. Purine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purine

    Purine is both a very weak acid (pK a 8.93) and an even weaker base (pK a 2.39). [6] If dissolved in pure water, the pH is halfway between these two pKa values. Purine is aromatic, having four tautomers each with a hydrogen bonded to a different one of the four nitrogen atoms. These are identified as 1-H, 3-H, 7-H, and 9-H (see image of ...

  3. Purine metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purine_metabolism

    Purines are biologically synthesized as nucleotides and in particular as ribotides, i.e. bases attached to ribose 5-phosphate.Both adenine and guanine are derived from the nucleotide inosine monophosphate (IMP), which is the first compound in the pathway to have a completely formed purine ring system.

  6. Nucleotide salvage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleotide_salvage

    A salvage pathway is a pathway in which a biological product is produced from intermediates in the degradative pathway of its own or a similar substance. The term often refers to nucleotide salvage in particular, in which nucleotides (purine and pyrimidine) are synthesized from intermediates in their degradative pathway.

  7. Purine nucleosidase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purine_nucleosidase

    In enzymology, a purine nucleosidase (EC 3.2.2.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction a purine nucleoside + H 2 O ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } D-ribose + a purine base Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are purine nucleoside and H 2 O , whereas its two products are D-ribose and purine base .

    Trump's plan to 'drill. baby, drill' isn't likely to spark more oil production, lower gasoline prices, and help reverse inflation, analysts say.

    [13] [16] [17] [18] [1] The normal pH in the fetus differs from that in the adult. In the fetus, the pH in the umbilical vein pH is normally 7.25 to 7.45 and that in the umbilical artery is normally 7.18 to 7.38. [19] Aqueous buffer solutions will react with strong acids or strong bases by absorbing excess H + ions, or OH −
