| Targets |
Cyto megalovirus DNA polymerase (CMV UL54). Guanosine is an inhibitor of this target. It also serves as a substrate for kinases that phosphorylate it to GMP, cGMP, GDP, and GTP. These nucleotides are involved in various cellular processes, including energy transfer and signal transduction.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Three different phosphorylated forms of guanosine include guanosine monophosphate (GMP), guanosine triphosphate (GTP), cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), and guanosine diphosphate (GDP). These forms are essential for many metabolic processes, including the production of proteins and nucleic acids, photosynthesis, contraction of muscles, and intracellular signal transduction (cGMP).
Guanosine possesses anti-HSV activity. It has also shown neuroprotective and neurotrophic effects in glial cells, hippocampal neurons, and pheochromocytoma cells by inducing proliferation and differentiation. Its conversion to GTP and cGMP is essential for metabolism. |
| ln Vivo |
Specific in vivo activity data for Guanosine are limited. It has been studied for its effects on anaerobic growth in Bacillus mojavensis. Its neuroprotective and neurotrophic effects suggest potential in vivo activity in the central nervous system. However, detailed animal model studies are not extensively described.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro assay for Guanosine's antiviral activity against HSV involves measuring the inhibition of viral replication in infected cell cultures. Cells are infected with HSV and treated with Guanosine, and the reduction in viral titer or viral DNA synthesis is measured.
|
| Cell Assay |
Specific in vitro cell-based assay protocols for Guanosine are not detailed. Its effects on cell proliferation and differentiation can be assessed in neuronal cell cultures. Cells are treated with Guanosine, and markers of proliferation and differentiation are measured using techniques such as immunocytochemistry or Western blotting.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Specific in vivo animal model protocols for Guanosine are not described. Its neuroprotective effects could be evaluated in animal models of neurodegenerative diseases or brain injury. However, specific studies are not detailed in the available literature.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
As an endogenous nucleoside, Guanosine is metabolized through the purine nucleotide cycle. It is converted to guanine by purine nucleoside phosphorylase and then to uric acid by xanthine oxidase. Its half-life in the circulation is short.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
As an endogenous compound, Guanosine is generally considered safe. High concentrations may have toxic effects, but these are not well-characterized. It is not used as a drug and has a well-established safety profile as a natural metabolite.

| Additional Infomation |
Guanosine is a purine nucleoside in which guanine is linked to ribofuranose via a β-N(9)-glycosidic bond. It is an important metabolite. Guanosine belongs to the purine D-ribonucleotide class and is a member of the guanosine group. It is functionally related to guanine. Guanosine is a nucleoside formed by guanine being linked to a ribose (ribofuranose) ring via a β-N9-glycosidic bond. Guanosine can be phosphorylated to produce GMP (guanosine monophosphate), cGMP (cyclic guanosine monophosphate), GDP (guanosine diphosphate), and GTP (guanosine triphosphate), all of which are factors in signal transduction pathways. Guanosine is a metabolite present in or produced by Escherichia coli (K12 strain, MG1655 strain). Ribonucleotides are metabolites present in or produced by Escherichia coli (K12 strain, MG1655 strain).
Guanosine has also been reported in Daphnia pulex, Sinocrassula indica, and other organisms with relevant data. Guanosine is a purine nucleoside composed of guanine and a ribose ring linked by a β-N9-glycosidic bond, and is essential for metabolism. Guanosine is found in or produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a purine nucleoside in which guanine is linked to the C1 carbon atom of the ribose through its N9 nitrogen atom. It is a component of ribonucleic acid (RNA), and its nucleotides play an important role in metabolism. (Excerpt from Dorland, 28th edition) Guanosine is a fundamental nucleoside involved in RNA synthesis and cellular metabolism. It is a precursor for GTP, which is essential for protein synthesis and signal transduction. It has also been studied for its neuroprotective and antiviral properties. It is not a drug but has research applications in cell biology and neuroscience. |
