Description

Adenine sulphate is a nucleotide that is involved in the formation of DNA and RNA. Adenine sulphate is synthesized from adenosine triphosphate and sulfuric acid. It has been shown to be an important component of DNA polymerase, which is responsible for the production of RNA and DNA. Adenine sulphate also plays a role in the development of insect resistance in plants and tissue culture cells. Adenine sulphate levels have been found to be reduced in patients with orotic aciduria, a condition characterized by high levels of orotic acid in the urine. The decreased adenine sulfate levels are thought to be due to an imbalance between adenosine diphosphate, which inhibits adenylosuccinate lyase (ADSL), and sulfite oxidase (SOX) activity. ADSL converts adenosine diphosphate into adenosinethiol disulfide, while SOX converts sulfite into hydrogen sulfide
