Application

2′,3′-Dideoxyadenosine (ddA), a specific adenylyl cyclase inhibitor, is useful in biological process and pathway studies involving adenylyl cyclase activity and cAMP pool modulation.

General description

2′,3′-Dideoxyadenosine is a nucleoside analog of deoxyadenosine. On deamination, it is converted to dideoxyinosine. It inhibits adenylyl cyclase and may play a key role in the inhibition of tumor progression. It is a potent inhibitor of reverse transcriptase enzyme of human immunodeficiency virus.

Telomerase adds telomeric DNA repeats to the ends of linear chromosomal DNA. 3'-Azido-3'-deoxythymidine 5'-triphosphate (AZTTP) is a known telomerase inhibitor. To obtain more selective and potent inhibitors that can be employed as tools for studying telomerase, we investigated the telomerase-inhibitory
