Definition
ChEBI: A thiopurine that is inosine in which the aromatic hydroxy group is replaced by a methylsulfanediyl group.
General Description
White powder.
Air & Water Reactions
Slightly soluble in water.
Biochem/physiol Actions
6-Methylmercaptopurine riboside (6MMPR) is a modified thiopurine nucleoside involved in the inhibition of purine synthesis. It exhibits anti-viral effects against various viruses. 6MMPR is an analog of purine and an inhibitor of nerve growth factor-activated protein kinase N.
Safety Profile
Poison by intraperitoneal route. Experimental teratogenic effects. Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic data. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of SO, and NOx.
