6-Chloropurine riboside, 98%

6-Chloropurine riboside is used to study the kinetics and substrate specificity of adenosine deaminase. 6-Chloropurine riboside is benzoylated to facilitate synthesis of nucleoside derivatives such as 9-(2,3-Di-deoxy-2-fluoro-β-D-threo-pentofuranosyl)adenine. It , especially after phosphorylation to NMP, NDP or NTP, is used as a purine substrate analogue in studies with enzymes such as Inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH); bacteriophage T4 RNA-ligase (EC 6.5.1.3) and pancreatic fibonuclease A.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand.
