title: Methyl 5'-(6-aminopurin-9-yl)-5'-deoxy-beta-D-ribofuranoside 2',3'-cyclic monophosphate: a novel, biologically active, structural analogue of cyclic AMP.
abstract: A novel structural analogue of cyclic AMP has been synthesized. This compound has been found to activate protein kinase from skeletal muscle (Ka 5.0 microM). It is virtually resistant to degradation by beef heart cAMP phosphodiesterase. It is an inhibitor of this enzyme with an [I]50 of 47.0 microM. The proliferation of cancer cells (HT-29) is inhibited by this compound. It represents the first example of a 2',3'-cyclic nucleotide with marked biological activity.
