EFdA-TP tetralithium (0.05-10 μM; duration 15 min) inhibits RT-catalyzed DNA synthesis as an ICT or DCT[1]. EFdA-TP tetralithium can block RT as a translocation-defective RT inhibitor, thereby significantly slowing DNA synthesis, acting as a de facto direct chain terminator[1]. EFdA-TP tetralithium can act as a delayed chain terminator, allowing the incorporation of additional dNTPs before blocking DNA synthesis[1].

| Additional Infomation |
4'-Ethynyl-2-fluoro-2'-deoxyadenosine (EFdA) is a nucleoside analog. Unlike approved nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors against human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), EFdA has a 3'-OH group and exhibits significant activity against both wild-type and drug-resistant HIV. EFdA triphosphate (EFdA-TP) is unique among nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors because it inhibits HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) through multiple mechanisms. (a) EFdA-TP can act as a translocation-deficient RT inhibitor, blocking RT and thus significantly slowing DNA synthesis, effectively acting as an immediate chain terminator. Although untranslocated EFdA-MP terminated primers can be unblocked, they can be efficiently converted back to their EFdA-MP terminated form. (b) EFdA-TP can act as a delayed chain terminator, allowing the incorporation of additional dNTPs before blocking DNA synthesis. In this case, EFdA-MP terminated primers are spared excision. (c) EFdA-MP can be efficiently mismatched and incorporated by reverse transcriptase, making it extremely difficult for mismatched primers to extend and also exempt from excision. The background of the template sequence determines the relative contribution of each mechanism and affects the affinity of EFdA-MP for potential incorporation sites, which partly explains the lack of antagonism between EFdA and tenofovir. Changes in the nucleotide type before EFdA-MP incorporation can change its inhibitory mechanism from a delayed chain terminator to an immediate chain terminator. The multifunctionality of EFdA in inhibiting HIV replication through multiple mechanisms may explain why resistance to EFdA is more difficult to develop.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

Injection Formulation 4: DMSO : 20% SBE-β-CD in saline = 10 : 90 [i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL (20% SBE-β-CD in saline)] Oral Formulations
Oral Formulation 1: Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na (carboxymethylcellulose sodium) Oral Formulation 2: Suspend in 0.5% Carboxymethyl cellulose Example: Take the Oral Formulation 1 (Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na) as an example, if 100 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can first prepare 0.5% CMC Na solution by measuring 0.5 g CMC Na and dissolve it in 100 mL ddH2O to obtain a clear solution; then add 250 mg of the product to 100 mL 0.5% CMC Na solution, to make the suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
