Tiivistelmä
The course of hydrolysis of 3'-deoxy-3'-thioinosylyl-(3'-->5')-uridine (IspU) has been followed by HPLC over a wide pH-range. Two reactions of:the internucleosidic thiophosphate linkage compete: (i) cleavage yielding thioinosine monophosphates and uridine, and (ii) isomerization to the 2',5'-isomer of IspU. Under very acidic conditions, even acid-catalyzed depurination of the inosine moiety is observed. The stability of the thiophosphate linkage and the mechanisms of its rupture are discussed.
