Product Description: Adenine-15N5 (6-Aminopurine-15N5; Vitamin B4-15N5) is 15N labeled Adenine (HY-B0152). Adenine (6-Aminopurine), a purine, is one of the four nucleobases in the nucleic acid of DNA. Adenine acts as a chemical component of DNA and RNA. Adenine also plays an important role in biochemistry involved in cellular respiration, the form of both ATP and the cofactors (NAD and FAD), and protein synthesis.
Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death
Formula: C5H5 15N5
