Metabolite Identification
Common Name5'-Deoxy-5-fluorouridine
Description5'-Deoxy-5-fluorouridine, also known as 5'-DFUR or 5-fluoro-5'-deoxyuridine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 5'-deoxyribonucleosides. These are nucleosides in which the oxygen atom at the 5'position of the ribose moiety has been replaced by another atom. The nucleobases here are limited to purine, pyrimidine, and pyridine derivatives. 5'-Deoxy-5-fluorouridine is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 5'-Deoxy-5-fluorouridine is a metabolite of capecitabine. Within humans, 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine can be converted into fluorouracil and 5-deoxyribose-1-phosphate through the action of the enzyme thymidine phosphorylase. In addition, 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine and meprobamate can be biosynthesized from capecitabine through its interaction with the enzymes liver carboxylesterase 1 and cytidine deaminase. Capecitabine is a prodrug, that is enzymatically converted to 5-fluorouracil in the tumor, where it inhibits DNA synthesis and slows growth of tumor tissue. In humans, 5'-deoxy-5-fluorouridine is involved in capecitabine action pathway. Capecitabine (Xeloda, Roche) is an orally-administered chemotherapeutic agent used in the treatment of metastatic breast and colorectal cancers.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in transferase activity, transferring glycosyl groups
Specific function:
May have a role in maintaining the integrity of the blood vessels. Has growth promoting activity on endothelial cells, angiogenic activity in vivo and chemotactic activity on endothelial cells in vitro. Catalyzes the reversible phosphorolysis of thymidine. The produced molecules are then utilized as carbon and energy sources or in the rescue of pyrimidine bases for nucleotide synthesis.
