Colourless Crystalline Powder
6-Chloropurine riboside is used to study the kinetics and substrate specificity of adenosine deaminase. 6-Chloropurine riboside is benzoylated to facilitate synthesis of nucleoside derivatives such as 9-(2,3-Di-deoxy-2-fluoro-β-D-threo-pentofuranosyl)adenine. 6-Chloropurine riboside, especially after phosphorylation to NMP, NDP or NTP, is used as a purine substrate analogue in studies with enzymes such as Inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH); bacteriophage T4 RNA-ligase (EC 6.5.1.3) and pancreatic fibonuclease A.
