| adenine | A purine base and a fundamental unit of ADENINE NUCLEOTIDES. |
| glutamic acid | A non-essential amino acid naturally occurring in the L-form. Glutamic acid is the most common excitatory neurotransmitter in the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. |
| adenosine | A nucleoside that is composed of ADENINE and D-RIBOSE. Adenosine or adenosine derivatives play many important biological roles in addition to being components of DNA and RNA. Adenosine itself is a neurotransmitter. |
| mercaptopurine | An antimetabolite antineoplastic agent with immunosuppressant properties. It interferes with nucleic acid synthesis by inhibiting purine metabolism and is used, usually in combination with other drugs, in the treatment of or in remission maintenance programs for leukemia. |
| adenosine diphosphate | Adenosine 5'-(trihydrogen diphosphate). An adenine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety at the 5'-position. |
| phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate | The key substance in the biosynthesis of histidine, tryptophan, and purine and pyrimidine nucleotides. |
| Water | A clear, odorless, tasteless liquid that is essential for most animal and plant life and is an excellent solvent for many substances. The chemical formula is hydrogen oxide (H2O). (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed) |
| deoxyguanosine | A nucleoside consisting of the base guanine and the sugar deoxyribose. |
| deoxyinosine | |
| deoxyguanosine triphosphate | |
| 2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-phosphate | RN given refers to parent cpd. |
| deoxyguanosine triphosphate | |
| Guanosine Monophosphate | A guanine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety and found widely in nature. |
| guanine | |
| guanosine | A purine nucleoside that has guanine linked by its N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of ribose. It is a component of ribonucleic acid and its nucleotides play important roles in metabolism. (From Dorland, 28th ed) |
| Inosine Monophosphate | Inosine 5'-Monophosphate. A purine nucleotide which has hypoxanthine as the base and one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety. |
| Inosine Triphosphate | Inosine 5'-(tetrahydrogen triphosphate). An inosine nucleotide containing three phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. Synonym: IRPPP. |
| molybdenum cofactor | also see records for molybdopterin cytosine dinucleotide and molybdopterin guanine dinucleotide |
| SAICAR | adenosylsuccinase catalyzes its conversion to AICAR |
| Guanosine Diphosphate | A guanine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. |
| Guanosine Monophosphate | A guanine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety and found widely in nature. |
| hypoxanthine | A purine and a reaction intermediate in the metabolism of adenosine and in the formation of nucleic acids by the salvage pathway. |
| inosine | A purine nucleoside that has hypoxanthine linked by the N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of ribose. It is an intermediate in the degradation of purines and purine nucleosides to uric acid and in pathways of purine salvage. It also occurs in the anticodon of certain transfer RNA molecules. (Dorland, 28th ed) |
| uric acid | An oxidation product, via XANTHINE OXIDASE, of oxypurines such as XANTHINE and HYPOXANTHINE. It is the final oxidation product of purine catabolism in humans and primates, whereas in most other mammals URATE OXIDASE further oxidizes it to ALLANTOIN. |
| 2'-deoxyadenosine | was (MH) DEOXYADENOSINE (68-89) |
| adenosine monophosphate | Adenine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety in the 2'-, 3'-, or 5'-position. |
| acadesine | structure; AICAR is used as an abbreviation for AICA ribotide as well as this compound |
| adenosine triphosphate | An adenine nucleotide containing three phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. In addition to its crucial roles in metabolism adenosine triphosphate is a neurotransmitter. |
| 6-methylthiopurine | |
| xanthosine | |
| xanthine | A purine base found in most body tissues and fluids, certain plants, and some urinary calculi. It is an intermediate in the degradation of adenosine monophosphate to uric acid, being formed by oxidation of hypoxanthine. The methylated xanthine compounds caffeine, theobromine, and theophylline and their derivatives are used in medicine for their bronchodilator effects. (Dorland, 28th ed) |
| saicar | adenosylsuccinase catalyzes its conversion to AICAR |
