Abstract excerpt
Nucleotides are the building blocks of living organisms and their biosynthesis must be tightly regulated. Inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) is a rate-limiting enzyme in GTP synthesis that is essential for biological activities, such as RNA synthesis. In animals, the suppression of IMPDH function causes ribosomal stress (also known as nucleolar stress), a disorder in ribosome biogenesis that results in...
