Purine nucleotides are two-carbon-containing nitrogenous bases (guanine and adenine) bonded to a ribose or deoxyribose molecule and three phosphate groups. These compounds can act as antimetabolites, extracellular messengers, and chain terminators that inhibit viral DNA polymerase.
Adenosine-5'-triphosphate disodium salt hydrate is used as a form of cellular energy. It is used in many cellular processes, respiration, biosynthetic reactions, motility, and cell division. ATP is a substrate of many kinases involved in cell signaling and of adenylate cyclase(s) that produce the...
