Journal Title：Pteridines

Pteridines is an open acess international quarterly journal dealing with all aspects of pteridine research. Pteridines are heterocyclic fused ring compounds involved in a wide range of biological functions from the color on butterfly wings to cofactors in enzyme catalysis to essential vitamins. Of the pteridines, 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin is the necessary cofactor of several aromatic amino acid monoxygenases, the nitric oxide synthases and glyceryl ether monoxygenase (GEMO). Neopterin plays an essential role in the immune system and is an important biomarker in laboratory medicine for diseases such as HIV, cardiovascular disease, malignant tumors, among others.

-Neopterin, dihydroneopterin, monapterin-

Biopterin, tetrahydrobiopterin-

Pteridines 是一本开放存取的国际季刊，涉及蝶啶研究的各个方面。蝶啶是杂环稠环化合物，涉及广泛的生物学功能，从蝴蝶翅膀的颜色到酶催化中的辅助因子，再到必需的维生素。在蝶啶中，5,6,7,8-四氢生物蝶呤是几种芳香族氨基酸单加氧酶、一氧化氮合酶和甘油醚单加氧酶 (GEMO) 的必要辅助因子。新蝶呤在免疫系统中发挥着重要作用，是 HIV、心血管疾病、恶性肿瘤等疾病检验医学中重要的生物标志物。

主题：

-新蝶呤、二氢新蝶呤、单蝶呤-

生物蝶呤、四氢生物蝶呤-
