PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Adenine is a purine nucleobase. It is widespread throughout animal and plant tissues combined with niacinamide, D-ribose, and phosphoric acids; a constituent of nucleic acids and coenzymes, such as codehydrase I and II, adenylic acid, coalaninedehydrase.
Application Notes
Adenine has a wide range of chemical and biochemical roles in vivo and in vitro. It is a regulatory molecule and a component of DNA, RNA, cofactors (NAD, FAD) and signaling molecules (cAMP). It is used as a blood preservative and in viral research.

Biochemical Physiological Actions
: Adenine is a purine nucleobase with a wide range of chemical and biochemical roles in vivo and in vitro. It is a regulatory molecule and a component of DNA, RNA, cofactors (NAD, FAD) and signaling molecules (cAMP). Adenine forms adenosine with ribose, which in turn forms AMP, ADP or ATP, depending on the extent of phosphorylation. ATP is involved in energy transfer during cellular metabolism.
