Product Description: 8-Bromoadenine (8-Bromo-9H-purin-6-amine) is a DNA radiosensitizer that inhibits DNA single-strand break repair in cells. 8-Bromoadenine is a brominated derivative of adenine, and radioactive adenine can be prepared by replacing bromine with deuterium[1][2].
Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death
Formula: C5H4BrN5
