Investigation of Spectra and Ionization Constants of 8-Alkyl Pterins by Fluorimetry

Spectrofluorimetric studies of the properties of 8-alkyl-pterins arc reported, together with preliminary results on the use of fluorimetry in studying the binding of these new mechanism-based substrates to dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). The compounds fluoresce strongly in the 460-490 nm range with...
