Beschreibung

5'-Azido-5'-deoxyadenosine (Aza-dA) is an adenosine analog that inhibits the deamination of S-adenosylhomocysteine to form adenosine. It has been shown to be more potent than 2-chloroadenosine and inactivates the enzyme s-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase, which is responsible for the conversion of S-adenosylhomocysteine to adenosine. This leads to decreased levels of adenosine and increased levels of s-adensoylhomocysteine. Aza-dA has been shown to inhibit tumor growth and induce apoptosis in rat hepatocytes. In addition, it is a halogenated molecule that can be used as a modifying agent.
