UsesN6-Methyladenine is a modified purine that is commonly found in genomes of prokaryotes, protists, and plants. It is less common in higher eukaryotes and extremely rare in mammals. Like methylation of other DNA residues, N6-methyladenine represents an epigenetic modification that can affect diverse DNA functions, including replication, repair, and expression.
Uses6-(Methylamino)purine, 6-methylade is a reagent for substitution of adenine nucleotide analogs containing bicyclohexane ring system locked in northern conformation enhanced potency as py receptor antagonists. Adenine methylation as an epigenic mark has been observed in single-celled organisms and also rarely in mamalian cells.
