Description

8-Hydroxyadenine is a reactive molecule that is used in the treatment of HIV infection. It is an inhibitor of reverse transcriptase and has been used to protect DNA against radiation damage. 8-Hydroxyadenine has been shown to induce a number of genotoxic effects, including neuronal death. 8-Hydroxyadenine can also be used as a DNA probe for the detection of HIV, with the advantage over other probes of having a high specificity for its target sequence.
