white crystalline powder | [Uses]
The deamination product of Guanosine. Potential biomarker for detecting radiation exposure. Used in the amplification of DNA isothermal strand displacement. | [General Description]
Xanthosine comprises xanthine ring. It is derived from a purine metabolite and is a caffeine biosynthesis intermediate. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Xanthosine plays a key role in purine metabolism. High levels of xanthosine excretion is observed in breast cancer. | [Purification Methods]
It crystallises from EtOH (anhydrous) or water (as dihydrate). [Howard et al. J Chem Soc 232 1949, Beilstein 31 H 28, 26 III/IV 2428.] |
