Product Information
Name:6-Azathymidine
Brand:Biosynth
Description:6-Azathymidine is an antiviral agent that prevents the synthesis of viral DNA. It is a nucleoside analogue that contains a hydroxyl group at the 6 position on a pyrimidine ring. This compound has been shown to be effective in treating HIV infection and cancer, as well as herpes simplex virus and influenza virus. 6-Azathymidine inhibits the enzyme ribonucleotide reductase, which is responsible for converting ribonucleotides into deoxyribonucleotides, thereby blocking DNA synthesis. The phosphate derivatives of this drug have been shown to inhibit the biosynthesis of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) by interfering with intermolecular hydrogen bonding between guanine and adenine.
