Carboxyaminoimidazole ribotide sodium salt
Carboxyaminoimidazole ribotide sodium salt, also known as CAIR, is an intermediate in the de novo purine biosynthesis pathway. It serves as a precursor for the synthesis of inosine monophosphate (IMP), an essential precursor for purine nucleotide synthesis. CAIR is involved in regulating cellular purine levels and is crucial for cell proliferation and nucleotide metabolism. The sodium salt form ensures its solubility and stability, facilitating its use in biochemical studies and metabolic labeling experiments.
