Adenine

Description:

Adenine is a purine nucleobase with the chemical formula C5H5N5. It is a fundamental component of nucleic acids, specifically DNA and RNA, where it pairs with thymine in DNA and uracil in RNA. Adenine plays a crucial role in cellular energy transfer, primarily through its involvement in adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the primary energy currency of the cell. It is also a key player in various biochemical processes, including signal transduction and the synthesis of nucleotides. Adenine is a white, crystalline solid that is soluble in water, and it exhibits basic properties due to the presence of nitrogen atoms in its structure. Its molecular structure features a fused double-ring system, characteristic of purines, which contributes to its stability and functionality in biological systems. Additionally, adenine can be phosphorylated to form adenosine monophosphate (AMP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), and ATP, further emphasizing its importance in metabolism and energy transfer within living organisms.

Adenine is a nucleobase found in DNA and RNA. It is an essential component of the human body and is used in the production of phosphoramidites, which are chemical compounds that can be converted into phosphodiester bonds. Adenine has been shown to have anticancer properties, and it may function as a novel activator for other anticancer drugs. Adenine is also used as a monophosphate in some cases. The purity of this compound exceeds 99% and the molecular weight ranges from 162 to 166.5 Daltons.

Adenine

CAS: 73-24-5

Adenine is a purine nucleoside that has guanine as its base. It has the chemical formula C5H5N5O and can be found in RNA, DNA, and ATP. Adenine is an important component of the human body because it is a key component of nucleic acids. It also plays a role in the regulation of metabolism and the production of energy. Adenine is one of the most abundant molecules in cells, making up 75% of DNA and 50% of RNA. Adenine is biosynthesized from aspartic acid by removing an amino group on aspartate to form oxaloacetate, which reacts with glyoxylate to form citric acid. This reaction requires vitamin B6 to function properly. The optimum concentration for adenine is between 10-100 mM, but it can be toxic at high concentrations (greater than 1 M). Adenine binds to sulfa drugs through hydrogen bonding interactions and also inhibits the enzyme x
