Common NameHypoxanthine
DescriptionHypoxanthine, also known as purine-6-ol or Hyp, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hypoxanthines. Hypoxanthines are compounds containing the purine derivative 1H-purin-6(9H)-one. Purine is a bicyclic aromatic compound made up of a pyrimidine ring fused to an imidazole ring. A purine nucleobase that consists of purine bearing an oxo substituent at position 6. Hypoxanthine is a moderately basic compound (based on its pKa). Hypoxanthine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within humans, hypoxanthine participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, hypoxanthine and ribose 1-phosphate can be biosynthesized from inosine; which is mediated by the enzyme purine nucleoside phosphorylase. In addition, hypoxanthine and phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate can be biosynthesized from inosinic acid; which is catalyzed by the enzyme hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase. In humans, hypoxanthine is involved in purine metabolism. Outside of the human body, Hypoxanthine is found, on average, in the highest concentration within beers and milk (cow). Hypoxanthine has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as pigeon pea, green vegetables, lovages, gram beans, and arrowhead. This could make hypoxanthine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Hypoxanthine is a potentially toxic compound.
