5'-P-FLUOROSULFONYL-BENZOYLADENOSINE HYDROCHLORIDE

Chemical Properties

Off-white powder

Uses

5′-(4-Fluorosulfonylbenzoyl)adenosine (FSBA) is an ATP analog used to study the mechanism of action of wortmannin. FSBA has been used to study vesicular transport in intestinal cells such as Caco-2, and to covalently modify residues in the nucleotide-binding domains (NBDs) of various ATPases, kinases, and other proteins.

Biochem/physiol Actions

5′-(4-Fluorosulfonylbenzoyl)adenosine helps to recognize adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding sites in kinases due to its reaction with nucleophilic amino acids happening within these motifs.
