Biochem/physiol Actions

8-Mercaptoguanosine is used to stimulate gene activation; in CD38-activated B cells it induces activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) expression. 8-Mercaptoguanosine is also used as an inhibitor of enzymes such as GTP cyclohydrolase I.

Guanine ribonucleosides with single substitutions at the C8 position (monosubstituted) or with dual substitutions at the C8 and N7 positions (disubstituted) up-regulate a spectrum of immunologic responses, including cytolytic responses to tumor cells. The current studies were undertaken to determine

GTP cyclohydrolase I feedback regulatory protein (GFRP) mediates the feedback inhibition of GTP cyclohydrolase I activity by (6R)-L-erythro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) through protein complex formation. Since guanine and BH4 have a common pyrimidine ring structure, we examined the inhibitory effect of guanine
