Product Description
N2-Acetylguanine is a C2-modified guanine. N2-Acetylguanine binds to GR (guanine-guanine riboswitch) with Kd of 300 nM. N2-Acetylguanine regulates transcription termination. N2-acetylguanine has research potential as an antimicrobial active molecule.
N2-Acetylguanine is a fragment molecule and an impurity of the antiviral drug acyclovir. It has the molecular formula C7H7N5O2 and a molecular weight of 193.16 g/mol. The compound is also known as N-(6-oxo-3,7-dihydropurin-2-yl)acetamide. As a fragment molecule, it serves as a scaffold for molecular linking, expansion, and modification in drug discovery. It is used as an analytical standard for quality control in pharmaceutical analysis. N2-Acetylguanine has been shown to completely disrupt a key Watson-Crick pairing interaction between a ligand and RNA. It is intended for research use only and is not for human consumption.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
N2-Acetylguanine does not have a specific pharmacological target as it is primarily a fragment molecule and an impurity. Its function is to serve as a scaffold for the design and synthesis of novel drug candidates. As an impurity of acyclovir, it is structurally related to a nucleoside analogue, but it is not the primary active compound. It has been shown to disrupt Watson-Crick pairing between a ligand and RNA, indicating it may interact with nucleic acids. However, its precise molecular targets are not well-defined.
ln Vitro
The crucial Watson-Crick pairing interaction between ligand and RNA is totally broken by N2-acetylguanine [1]. In Bacillus subtilis, N2-acetylguanine (20 µM) stimulates transcription termination [1].
Specific in vitro biological activities for N2-Acetylguanine are not extensively documented in the available literature. It is primarily used as a fragment molecule in drug discovery and as an analytical standard. It has been shown to completely disrupt a key Watson-Crick pairing interaction between a ligand and RNA, suggesting it may have the ability to interfere with nucleic acid interactions. This property could make it a useful tool for studying RNA-ligand interactions. However, its primary application is in chemical synthesis and analytical chemistry.
ln Vivo
In vivo, N2-Acetylguanine is not used as a therapeutic agent. It is primarily a research chemical used as a fragment in drug discovery and as an impurity standard. Its role in vivo, if any, has not been characterized. The compound is not intended for human consumption and would not be administered to animals for therapeutic purposes. Its use is limited to laboratory research and quality control applications.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme or receptor binding assays for N2-Acetylguanine are not typically performed, as the compound is not a known bioactive molecule with a defined target. Its use in research is primarily as a synthetic intermediate, fragment for medicinal chemistry, or analytical standard. When used in such contexts, it is subjected to chemical reactions or analytical procedures rather than biological assays. The compound's purity and identity are confirmed using standard analytical techniques such as HPLC.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays using N2-Acetylguanine are not typical, as the compound is not a bioactive molecule used for studying cellular processes. Its primary applications are in chemical synthesis, drug discovery as a fragment, and as an analytical standard. It is not generally used directly in cell culture experiments. The compound's ability to disrupt Watson-Crick pairing suggests it could be used to study RNA interactions, but this is not its primary application.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments using N2-Acetylguanine are not typical, as the compound is a fragment molecule and an impurity standard rather than a therapeutic agent. It is not administered to animals for therapeutic purposes. Its role is limited to chemical synthesis, drug discovery, and analytical chemistry.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of N2-Acetylguanine have not been characterized, as the compound is not intended for in vivo use. It has a molecular weight of 193.16 g/mol and the formula C7H7N5O2. The compound is a solid with a melting point of 260°C. For long-term storage, the compound is kept as a powder under appropriate conditions. Its solubility and other physicochemical properties are not detailed in the available literature.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Specific toxicological data for N2-Acetylguanine are not provided in the available sources. As a research chemical, its safety profile in humans has not been established. The compound is classified as a research reagent and is not for therapeutic or veterinary use. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed when handling this compound, including the use of appropriate personal protective equipment.

Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
