8-Bromoadenosine 5′′-monophosphate (8-Br-AMP) is an analogue of 5′-AMP useful for receptor mapping studies; as a starting structure for 8-modified 5′-AMP derivatives and for synthesis of poly-8-bromoriboadenylic acid.

When added to extracts of mouse L cells containing ATP and an energy regenerating system, the 5'-diphosphate of 2-5A core, pp5'A2'p5'A2'p5'A, as well as a bromoadenylate analog, pp5' (br8A)2'p5'(br8A)2'p5'(br8A), can be phosphorylated to the corresponding 5'-triphosphate, ppp5'A2'p5'A2'p5'A and ppp5'(br8A)2'p5'(br8A)2'p5(br8A), respectively.
This study is the first to demonstrate that shizukaol D, a natural compound isolated from Chloranthusjaponicus, can activate AMP- activated protein kinase (AMPK), a key sensor and regulator of intracellular energy metabolism, leading to a decrease in triglyceride and cholesterol

Poly-8-bromoriboadenylic acid was synthesized by the bromination of adenosine-5'-monophosphate to yield 8-bromoadenosine-5'-monophosphate which on conversion to the 5'-diphosphate form was polymerized by polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase). The polymer formed a 1:1 hybrid with polyribouridylic acid and the hybrid was found to
Hyperpolarization-activated, cyclic nucleotide sensitive (HCN) channels underlie the pacemaker current I(f), which plays an essential role in spontaneous cardiac activity. HCN channel subunits (HCN1-4) are believed to be modulated by additional regulatory proteins, which still have to be identified. Using
Female mammals inactivate one of their two X-chromosomes to compensate for the difference in gene-dosage with males that have just one X-chromosome. X-chromosome inactivation is initiated by the expression of the non-coding RNA Xist, which coats the X-chromosome in cis
