2-Amino-6,8-dihydroxypurine Hydrochloride (CAS 1246818-54-1)
QUICK LINKS
2-Amino-6,8-dihydroxypurine hydrochloride functions as a purine analog that can be used to study its effects on cellular processes. It can act as a competitive inhibitor of adenosine deaminase, an enzyme involved in purine metabolism, thereby affecting the levels of adenosine and other purine nucleosides in cells. 2-Amino-6,8-Dihydroxypurine Hydrochloride can also interfere with the synthesis of nucleic acids by inhibiting enzymes such as ribonucleotide reductase and DNA polymerase. 2-Amino-6,8-dihydroxypurine hydrochloride may induce DNA damage and inhibit cell proliferation by interfering with DNA replication and repair processes. Its mechanism of action involves disrupting purine metabolism and nucleic acid synthesis, which may be useful for investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying these cellular processes.
