Description | 2'-Deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate, also known as deoxyguanylic acid or 2'-deoxy-GMP, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as purine 2'-deoxyribonucleoside monophosphates. These are purine nucleotides with monophosphate group linked to the ribose moiety lacking a hydroxyl group at position 2. 2'-Deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate is a purine 2'-deoxyribonucleoside 5'-monophosphate having guanine as the nucleobase. It exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within humans, 2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, 2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate can be converted into dGDP which is mediated by the enzyme guanylate kinase. In addition, 2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate can be converted into deoxyguanosine through its interaction with the enzyme cytosolic purine 5'-nucleotidase. In humans, 2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate is involved in the metabolic disorder called the gout or kelley-seegmiller syndrome pathway. |
