Adenine 9-beta-D-arabinofuranoside, >=99%
Application
Adenine 9-?-D-arabinofuranoside has been used for the inhibition of 5? AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in liver, muscle and cardiac cells H9c2.
Used to study the roles of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in cell signaling.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Cell-permeable adenylate cyclase inhibitor; in detergent-dispersed rat brain preparation, IC50 = 30 µM. Clinically significant antiviral agent, especially against herpes simplex (HSV), by inhibition of DNA polymerase.
General description
Adenine 9-?-D-arabinofuranoside (AraA) is a nucleoside analog. It is an antiviral drug and targets viral DNA polymerases and is majorly used for treating herpes simplex viral infection. It is a potent inhibitor of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). It also inhibits cardiac type 5 adenylyl cyclase but does not improve pathology in cardiovascular diseases.
