Hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HGPRT). 9-Deazaguanine is a potent inhibitor of HGPRT, the enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of hypoxanthine and guanine to their respective nucleotides in the purine salvage pathway. By inhibiting HGPRT, the compound disrupts purine nucleotide synthesis, which can affect DNA and RNA synthesis, cell proliferation, and immune function. The compound's mechanism of action involves binding to the active site of HGPRT and preventing the conversion of guanine to GMP.
