Description

5-Bromoorotic acid is a chemical compound that contains one bromine atom. This compound has been shown to inhibit the growth of mammalian cells, which may be due to its ability to bind to DNA and interfere with protein synthesis. 5-Bromoorotic acid also has an inhibitory effect on radiation, which may be due to its ability to form stable complexes with electrons. 5-Bromoorotic acid has a helical structure, which may make it more stable than other compounds. It also inhibits the production of uridine by inhibiting uridine phosphorylase and nitro group production in g. lamblia, which is a parasitic protozoan that causes intestinal infections in humans.
