Adenosine-15N (CAS 41547-82-4)

Adenosine-15N is a stable, non-radioactive isotope of adenosine, a nucleoside that plays a role in various biochemical processes. In research and development, adenosine-15N is used as a tracer in metabolic studies and isotope labeling experiments. It is incorporated into nucleic acids and proteins to track the movement and transformation of adenosine within biological systems. By replacing the natural nitrogen-15 isotope with adenosine-15N, which may be used to study the metabolic pathways, turnover rates, and interactions of adenosine at the molecular level. This isotope labeling technique allows for the precise quantification and identification of adenosine-containing compounds in complex biological samples, providing useful insights into cellular metabolism and signaling pathways. Adenosine-15N′s mode of action involves serving as a stable, non-radioactive marker that can be detected and quantified using advanced analytical techniques, enabling deeper understanding of adenosine in various biological processes.
