13. investigation of catalytic mechanisms involved in catalysis by PNP: transition states in arsenolysis and phosphorolysis PMID: 21348499
14. Results show that some regions, responsible for entrance and exit of substrate, present a conformational variability, which is dissected by dynamics simulation analysis. PMID: 19932753
15. PNP operating at maximum catalytic potential permits more rapid peptide amide deuterium exchange and greater conformational flexibility of water-peptide bond exchange rate than in either of the complexes with transition state analogues. PMID: 20108972
16. The optimum pH for PNP from human erythrocytes with xanthosine and xanthine is in the range 5-6, whereas those with guanosine, guanine, inosine & hypoxanthine are in the range 7-8. Possible PNP binding modes of Xan and Xao by mammalian PNPs are proposed. PMID: 12180982
17. Crystal structure of human purine nucleoside phosphorylase. PMID: 12914785
18. These data provide a framework in which to conduct genetic association studies of these two genes in relevant populations, thereby allowing hNP and hGSTO1-1 to be evaluated as potential susceptibility genes in human arsenicism. PMID: 12928150
19. investigation of the quaternary structure of recombinant human purine nucleoside phosphorylase PMID: 13679062
20. crystal structures in complex with inosine and 2',3'-dideoxyinosine, refined to 2.8A resolution using synchrotron radiation. The structures provide explanation for ligand binding, refine the purine-binding site and can be used for future inhibitor design. PMID: 14706628
21. several recurring mutations were found in PNP in patients with purine nucleoside phosphorylase deficiency by DNA sequence analysis PMID: 15571269
22. crystal structure of human PNP in complex with hypoxanthine, refined to 2.6A resoluti PMID: 15582582
