| adenosine 3'-phosphate 5'-phosphosulfate | 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphosulfate;an intermediate in the formation of urinary ethereal sulfates, notable for containing a "high energy" sulfate bond; the 3'-OH of adenosine is replaced by -OPO3H2, the 5'-OH by -OP(O2H)-OSO3H. Synonym: active sulfate. Acronym: PAPS (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| adenosine 5'-diphosphate | A condensation product of adenosine with pyrophosphoric acid, formed from ATP by the hydrolysis of the terminal phosphate group of the latter compound. Acronym: ADP (05 Mar 2000) |
| adenosine-5'-(n-ethylcarboxamide) | <chemical> A stable adenosine a1 and a2 receptor agonist. Experimentally, it inhibits camp and cgmp phosphodiesterase activity. Pharmacological action: antineoplastic agent, vasodilator agents. (12 Dec 1998) |
