7-Deazaxanthine, a novel prototype inhibitor of thymidine phosphorylase.
7-Deazaxanthine (7DX) was identified as a novel inhibitor of thymidine (dThd) phosphorylase (TPase). It inhibited the TPase reaction in a concentration-dependent manner. At 1 mM, it almost completely prevented the TPase-catalysed hydrolysis of dThd to thymine. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50...
