Description

N6-Benzoyladenosine is a purine nucleoside that is synthesized from uridine and has a high resistance to phosphorylation. It is found in the mitochondrial matrix of rat hepatocytes and can be used as a specific agent for the treatment of symptoms related to Parkinson's disease. N6-Benzoyladenosine inhibits protein synthesis by inhibiting the catalytic subunit of guanine nucleotide-binding proteins, which are involved in cellular energy production. It also inhibits camp levels and camp concentrations in mitochondria, which may be due to its effects on the trimethylbenzodiazepine receptor.
