Oxanosine Monophosphate Is a Covalent Inhibitor of Inosine 5′-Monophosphate Dehydrogenase [PDF]
Chemical Research in Toxicology, 2019 Reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are produced during infection and inflammation, and the effects of these agents on proteins, DNA, and lipids are well recognized. In contrast, the effects of RNS damaged metabolites are less appreciated. 5-Amino-3-β-(d-ribofuranosyl)-3 H-imidazo-[4,5- d][1,3]oxazine-7-one (oxanosine) and its nucleotides are products of ...
