Metabolite Identification
Common Name5'-deoxyinosine
Description5'-deoxyinosine is a purine nucleoside that belongs to the class of metabolites. Its chemical structure consists of a ribose sugar lacking a hydroxyl group at the 5' position, which is attached to an inosine base. This modification plays a crucial role in various biochemical pathways. For instance, 5'-deoxyinosine is generated from the deamination of 5'-deoxyadenosine, a reaction catalyzed by the MJ1541 gene product (PMID:24375099 ). Additionally, it serves as a substrate for the enzyme MTIP, which catalyzes its conversion into 5-deoxyribose 1-phosphate (PMID:29877790 ). The 5-deoxyribose moiety of 5'-deoxyinosine is further metabolized into deoxyhexoses, which are essential for the biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids in methanogens (PMID:24375099 ). Furthermore, 5'-deoxyinosine can be involved in the synthesis of radiolabeled compounds for positron emission tomography (PET) applications, as demonstrated by its incorporation into [18F]-5'-fluoro-5'-deoxyinosine (PMID:16446840 ). Overall, 5'-deoxyinosine plays a significant role in nucleotide metabolism and the synthesis of various biochemical compounds.
