| Description | Pterine-6-carboxylic acid (6-Carboxypterin) is a photodegradation product of folic acid, which can be used as a photosensitive agent to study the molecular mechanism of UVA breaking DNA structure. |
| In vitro | Pterin-6-carboxylic acid induces DNA photooxidation specifically at consecutive G residues through electron transfer[1]. Pterin-6-carboxylic acid bind to the active site of phosphodiesterase 5 with the binding energy value of -7.1 and 2.05A° 2.23A° when compared with other compound found in the plant. In silico studies hypothesized that pterin-6-carboxylic acid can be an inhibitory agent for PDE5 protein which could be a potential drug candidate for the treatment of erectile dysfunction[2]. |
