Abstract

IMPDH Biotin probe Enzyme inhibitors 6-Cl-purine ribotide Nucleotide biosynthesis Mechanism-based probe Biochemistry
IMP dehydrogenase (IMPDH) catalyzes a critical step in guanine nucleotide biosynthesis. IMPDH also has biological roles that are distinct from its enzymatic function. We report a biotin-linked reagent that selectively labels IMPDH and is released by dithiothreitol. This reagent will be invaluable in elucidating the moonlighting functions of IMPDH.
