Abstract
The metabolic fate of 1, N 6-ethenoadenosine ( I) has been studied in rat. The predominant metabolic pathway is the scission of the glycosidic bond in I to yield the free base, 1, N 6-ethenoadenine ( III). Incubation of I with the extract of sarcoma-180 cells in presence of ATP and Mg 2+ did not result in phosphorylation of the nucleoside. No significant uptake of this compound was observed in L-1210 mouse leukemia cells grown in culture.
