5′-Deoxyadenosine is an analog of adenosin. In the degradation reaction of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), 5′-Deoxyadenosine is an intermediate. 5′-Deoxyadenosine is used to study the enzyme kinematics of phosphomethylpyrimidine synthase, glutamate mutase, and 5′-methylthioadenosine phosphorylase. In addition, 5′-Deoxyadenosine has been used as a mass spectroscopy standard, and a thymidine phosphorylase activity screening inhibitor. Finally, 5′-Deoxyadenosine functions as a substrate if 5′-Deoxyadenosine deaminase (DadD) assay.
