Title: Chemo-enzymatic synthesis of 3-deoxy-beta-D-ribofuranosyl purines and study of their biological properties. Author: Barai VN, Zinchenko AI, Eroshevskaya LA, Zhernosek EV, Balzarini J, De Clercq E, Mikhailopulo IA. Journal: Nucleosides Nucleotides Nucleic Acids; 2003; 22(5-8):751-3. PubMed ID: 14565270. Abstract: 9-(3-Deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-2,6-diaminopurine (2) was synthesized by an enzymatic transglycosylation of 2,6-diaminopurine using 3'-deoxycytidine (1) as a donor of the sugar moiety. Nucleoside 2 was transformed to 3'-deoxy guanosine (3), 9-(3-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-2-amino-6-oxopurine (3'-deoxyisoguanosine; 4), and 9-(3-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-2-fluoroadenine (5). Compounds 2-5 were evaluated for their anti-HIV activity.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
