Purity:  99.69%
Synonyms: BV-araU
Target:  

DNA/RNA Synthesis

Research Areas:  

Infection

Sorivudine (BV-araU) is an orally active synthetic pyrimidine nucleoside antimetabolite agent. Sorivudine derives its antiviral activity from selective conversion by a specific thymidine kinase present in certain DNA viruses to nucleotides, which can in turn interfere with viral DNA synthesis .

Cat. No.: HY-W014109
CAS No.: 69304-49-0
Synonyms: (E)-5-(2-Bromovinyl)uracil; BVU
Target:  

DNA/RNA Synthesis

Research Areas:  

Infection

(E)-5-(2-Bromovinyl)uracil (BVU) is a pyrimidine base and an inactive metabolite of the antiviral agents sorivudine and (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl)-2'-deoxyuridine (BVDU) that may be regenerated to BVDU in vivo. BVU irreversibly inactivates dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) in an NADPH-dependent manner. It enhances the efficacy of the chemotherapeutic agent and DPD substrate 5-fluorouracil (HY-90006) in a P388 murine leukemia model when administered at a dose of 200 μmol/kg, increasing survival time.
