| 6-METHYLMERCAPTOPURINE RIBOSIDE Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | white powder | | Uses | 6-Methylmercaptopurine Riboside (cas# 342-69-8) is a compound useful in organic synthesis. | | Uses | 6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside (6MMPr) is used in studies on thiopurine metabolism by enzymes such as inosine-5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase and thiopurine methyltransferase. 6MMPr may also be used to study mechanisms of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) inhibition. | | Definition | ChEBI: A thiopurine that is inosine in which the aromatic hydroxy group is replaced by a methylsulfanediyl group. | | General Description | White powder. | | Air & Water Reactions | Slightly soluble in water. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | 6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside (6MMPR) is a modified thiopurine nucleoside involved in the inhibition of purine synthesis. It exhibits anti-viral effects against various viruses. 6MMPR is an analog of purine and an inhibitor of nerve growth factor-activated protein kinase N. | | Safety Profile | Poison by
intraperitoneal route. Experimental
teratogenic effects. Questionable carcinogen
with experimental tumorigenic data.
Mutation data reported. When heated to
decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of
SO, and NOx. |
