Produktinformation

• Name: 2’-Deoxy-8-methylthioadenosine
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 2’-Deoxy-8-methylthioadenosine is a monophosphate and antiviral compound. It is used for the treatment of viral infections and has been shown to be active against herpes simplex, varicella zoster, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus, and human immunodeficiency virus. The compound inhibits the activity of DNA polymerase by competing with deoxyribonucleosides as substrates. This results in the inhibition of DNA synthesis. 2’-Deoxy-8-methylthioadenosine also inhibits ribonucleotide reductase, which is an enzyme that catalyzes the production of ribonucleotides from deoxyribonucleotides. 2’-Deoxy-8-methylthioadenosine has been shown to inhibit cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo through G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis induction.
