Description

2-Amino-4-thiazolecarboxylic acid is a potent antiviral agent that inhibits influenza virus replication. It has been shown to be effective in vivo against the growth of tumor cells and to inhibit the activity of viral proteases. It also inhibits the activity of human plasma cholinesterase, which may be due to its structural similarity to acetylcholine. 2-Amino-4-thiazolecarboxylic acid is soluble in water and hydrochloric acid, but insoluble in ether or chloroform. This compound has been used as an analytical standard for measuring plasma levels of chloride ions by ion chromatography.
