Description: Inosine (NSC-20262) is a purine nucleoside that has hypoxanthine linked by the N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of ribose. It has immunomodulatory, neuroprotective, and analgesic properties. Target: Endogenous Metabolite, Adenosine Receptor, ROS. Smiles: OC[C@@H]1O[C@@H](C(O)C1O)N1C=NC2=C1N=CNC2=O....

Inosine is a purine nucleoside composed of hypoxanthine (Cay-22254) and ribose. It is formed from inosine-5'-monophosphate (Cay-18135) by 5'-nucleotidase. Inosine can also be formed by the deamination of adenosine, a post-translational modification known as A-to-I editing that occurs in tRNA and mRNA and is...

Inosine, an intermediate in purine metabolism, consists of hypoxanthine and ribose. It is an inert purine nucleoside formed by breakdown of adenosine (deamination, known as A-to-I editing that occurs in tRNA and mRNA) or also is generated by the action of 5'-nucleotidase on inosine monophosphate (IMP). Inosine has...
