AdipoGen Guanosine

Supplier:  AdipoGen CDXG0035G100

Chemical. CAS 118-00-3. Formula C10H13N5O5. MW 283.24. Synthetic. Purine nucleoside comprising guanine attached to a ribose ribofuranose ring via a beta-N9-glycosidic bond. Can be phosphorylated to become guanosine monophosphate GMP, cyclic guanosine monophosphate cGMP, guanosine diphosphate GDP and guanosine triphosphate GTP. These forms play important roles in various biochemical processes such as synthesis of nucleic acids and proteins, photosynthesis, muscle contraction and intracellular signal transduction cGMP. Guanosine has important functions in cell metabolism and a protective role in response to degenerative diseases or injury with neurotrophic and neuroprotective effects. Required for an RNA splicing reaction in mRNA, when a "self-splicing" intron removes itself from the mRNA message by cutting at both ends, re-ligating, and leaving just the exons on either side to be translated into protein.
