General description

2′-Deoxyuridine 5′-monophosphate disodium salt (dUMP) is a substrate for thymidylate synthase and is converted to deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP).

Application

2′-Deoxyuridine 5′-monophosphate (dUMP) is used by the enzyme thymidylate synthetase (TS) (EC 2.1.1.45) for the de novo production of dTMP. dUMP is used as the reference substrate in studies of dUMP analogues in potential chemotherapy applications.
2′-Deoxyuridine 5′-monophosphate disodium salt has been used:
  • in ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC/MS/MS) assay
  • to stimulate proliferation of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMCs) exposed to influenza virus antigen
  • in thymidylate synthase activity assay Helicobacter pylori

Biochem/physiol Actions

2′-Deoxyuridine 5′-monophosphate disodium salt (dUMP) conversion to pyrimidine is inhibited by methotrexate. The inhibition of dUMP to deoxythymidine monophosphate (dTMP) at the methylation step is a key in controlling bacterial and eukaryotic cell growth.

The enzyme thymidylate synthase (TS) catalyzes the reductive methylation of 2'-deoxyuridine 5'-monophosphate (dUMP) to 2'-deoxythymidine 5'-monophosphate. Using kinetic and X-ray crystallography experiments, we have examined the role of the highly conserved Tyr-261 in the catalytic mechanism of TS. While Tyr-261

Anti-poxvirus therapies are currently limited to cidofovir [(S)-1-(3-hydroxy-2-phosphonylmethoxypropyl)cytosine], but drug-resistant strains have already been characterized. In the aim of finding a new target, the thymidylate (TMP) kinase from vaccinia virus, the prototype of Orthopoxvirus, has been overexpressed in Escherichia coli
