Produktinformation

• Name: 2'-Deoxy-4'-thiouridine
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: 2'-Deoxy-4'-thiouridine (2dT) is a synthetic purine nucleoside analogue that has antiviral activity against herpes simplex virus and hepatitis B virus. It is a lead compound for the development of therapeutic agents for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 and varicella, and it has potential applications in the treatment of renal toxicity. 2dT inhibits viral replication by inhibiting viral thymidine kinase, which converts 2dT to 2'-deoxy-4'-thioguanosine monophosphate (2'TGMP). The 2'TGMP inhibits intracellular phosphorylation reactions necessary for DNA synthesis and cell division. This inhibition leads to death of the infected cells.
