6-Methylmercaptopurine ribonucleoside

A number of purine nucleotide analogues can mimic the effects of natural purine ribonucleotides on PP-ribose-P amidotransferase and thereby effect feedback inhibition of the entire pathway (69, 60). Such nucleotide analogues may be synthesized by cells from purine bases or nucleosides presented to them. A number of compounds with potent inhibitory properties, such as 6-mercaptopurine, 6-thioguanine, and 6-methylmercaptopurine ribonucleoside, inhibit purine biosynthesis de novo in this way, although it is not known whether this action is responsible for the growth inhibition. [Pg.119]

FIGURE 4. The effect of pretreatment with 6-methylmercapto-purine ribonucleoside on the nucleotide profiles of Sarcoma 180 cells treated with 6-thioguanine. Sarcoma 180 cells were removed from mice 1 hour after incubation with 6-thioguanine. The dotted line indicates cells from mice that had been pretreated for 12 hours with 6-methylmercaptopurine ribonucleoside, and the solid line indicates cells from mice that had not been pretreated (12). [Pg.414]
