2-Fluoroadenine (F-Ade) is a metabolite of 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-2-fluoroadenine (F-ara-A) that may be involved in the development of toxic side effects from this anticancer drug. The liberation of F-Ade from F-ara-A has been examined in different biological systems. Extracts of Escherichia coli

Carbocyclic and acyclic nucleosides possessing 2-fluoroadenine, such as 2-fluoronoraristeromycin (6) and 2-fluoro-9-[(2S,3R)-2,3,4-trihydroxy-butyl-1-yl]adenine (8), were synthesized and their inhibitory activities against human and Plasmodium falciparum recombinant SAH hydrolase were investigated.

A gene-directed enzyme pro-drug therapy (GDEPT) based on purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP), that converts the prodrug, fludarabine to 2-fluoroadenine, has been described, but studies are limited compared with other GDEPTs. We investigated the in vitro and in vivo efficacies of

A double mutant of human purine nucleoside phosphorylase (hDM) with the amino acid mutations Glu201Gln:Asn243Asp cleaves adenosine-based prodrugs to their corresponding cytotoxic drugs. When fused to an anti-tumor targeting component, hDM is targeted to tumor cells, where it effectively catalyzes

Murine P388 cells incubated in vitro with the anticancer drug arabinosyl 2-fluoroadenine accumulate its 5'-triphosphate, F-araATP, as the major phosphorylated metabolite. A new chromatographically separate metabolite that accumulated to levels 10% of that of F-araATP was identified as 2-fluoro-ATP, by
