Synthesizing ADP- and ATP-containing molecules using traditional methods is challenging, however. A new chemical reaction has greatly improved the\u00a0amount of synthesized ADP- and ATP-containing molecules created during a reaction, allowing researchers to use and better understand the function of these molecules in the\u00a0cell.<br>\u00a0<br>Traditional methods of generating ADP- and ATP-containing molecules suffer many drawbacks, including complex procedures, drying conditions, low reproducibility and low\u00a0reaction yields. Additionally, many of these reactions can only accommodate a narrow range of molecules that can construct an ADP or ATP framework, limiting their usefulness.\u00a0<br>\u00a0<br>To address this issue, a team of researchers developed a new chemical reaction that reliably produces ADP- and ATP-containing molecules with high yields. To do this, the team\u00a0modified a coupling reaction to create ADP- and ATP-containing molecules including nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+, a molecule involved in energy metabolism)\u00a0analogs.\u00a0<br>\u00a0<br>The team published the study in the July \/ 19th issue of\u00a0Chemistry: A European Journal.<br><br>News Release for this research:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurekalert.org\/news-releases\/1052817\">https:\/\/www.eurekalert.org\/news-releases\/1052817<\/a><\/span><\/p>\r\n<p>\u3010<span>Paper Information<\/span>\u3011<span><br>Rui Hagino, Ryo Kuwabara, Naoko Komura, Akihiro Imamura,\u00a0Hideharu Ishida, Hiromune Ando, Hide-Nori Tanaka.\u00a0<br>Protecting-Group-Free Synthesis of ADP-Ribose and\u00a0Dinucleoside Di-\/Triphosphate Derivatives via P(V)-P(V) Coupling\u00a0Reaction<br>Chemistry-A European Journal<br>DOI: 10.1002\/chem.202401302<br>URL:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/chemistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/chem.202401302\">https:\/\/chemistry-europe.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/chem.202401302<\/a><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":151,"parent":0,"template":"","news_cat":[4],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/igcore.thers.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/744"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/igcore.thers.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/igcore.thers.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/igcore.thers.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/151"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/igcore.thers.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=744"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"news_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/igcore.thers.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news_cat?post=744"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
