Recent experimental studies suggest that complexation with borate minerals stabilizes ribose, and that the borate complex of ribose is more stable than those of related aldopentoses, that is, arabinose, lyxose, and xylose. These findings have revived the debate on the

Biofilm formation is a complex, ordered process. In the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Psl and Pel exopolysaccharides and extracellular DNA (eDNA) serve as structural components of the biofilm matrix. Despite intensive study, Pel's chemical structure and spatial localization within mature

Using an HPLC column packed with monodispersed vinylbenzeneboronic acid-divinylbenzene (V-D) copolymer resins, the elution behaviors of the mono- and disaccharides were studied under different pH mobile phases. The monodispersed V-D copolymer resins were prepared by the copolymerization of 4-vinylbenzeneboronic acid

All four members of the family of pentopyranosyl-(2'-->4') oligonucleotide systems that contain beta-ribo-, beta-xylo-, alpha-lyxo-, or alpha-arabinopyranosyl units as repeating sugar building blocks are found to be much stronger Watson-Crick base-pairing systems than RNA. The alpha-arabinopyranosyl system is the strongest

Several 2-substituted alpha-D- and alpha-L-lyxofuranosyl and 5-deoxylyxofuranosyl derivatives of 5,6-dicholro-2-(isopropylamino)-1-(beta-L-ribofuranosyl) benzimidazole (1263W94) and 2,5,6-trichloro-1(beta-D-ribofuranosyl)benzimidazole (TCRB) were synthesized and evaluated for activity against two herpesviruses (HSV-1 and HCMV) and for their cytotoxicity against HFF and KB cells. Condensation of 1,2,3,5-tetra-O-acetyl-L-lyxofuranose (2a)
