Metabolite: HMDB0006273 (5-Amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxylic acid)
Term: Mercaptopurine Action Pathway
Definition: mercaptopurine travels through the bloodstream and is transported into cells via nucleoside transporters. mercaptopurine is then converted to thioguanosince diphosphate through a series of metabolic reactions that produces the metabolic intermediates, thioinosine 5’-monophosphate, thioxanthine monophosphate, and thioguanosine monophosphate.
Parent Term: Biochemical pathway
Parent Definition: A linked series of chemical reactions that occur in a defined order within or between organism cells, and lead to a known function or end product.
