Eastbio: Design, synthesis, and mechanism of action of inhibitors of the human enzyme 2′-deoxynucleoside 5′-phosphate N-hydrolase 1

The human enzyme 2′-deoxynucleoside 5′-phosphate N-hydrolase 1 (DNPH1) catalyses the N-ribosidic bond hydrolysis of the noncanonical nucleotide 5-hydroxymethyl-2′-deoxyuridine 5′-monophosphate, producing 5-hydroxymethyluracil and 2-deoxyribose 5-phosphate. Read more
