66983-94-6 Usage
Description
Ribavirin 5''-monophosphate inhibits viral DNA and RNA replication in vitro via the strong competitive inhibition of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH), with a reported Ki value of 270 nM, and thus inhibits guanosine triphosphate synthesis. This agent, a metabolite of the prodrug ribavirin , exhibits broad-spectrum antiviral activity, particularly against myxoviruses. The antiviral effects of ribavirin require conversion to the monophosphate form via adenosine kinase. The anti-HIV activity of ribavirin in cultured human lymphocytes, as well as the anti-influenza activity of this prodrug in MDCK cells, have been attributed to ribavirin 5''-monophosphate.

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 66983-94-6 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 6,6,9,8 and 3 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 9 and 4 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 66983-94:
(7*6)+(6*6)+(5*9)+(4*8)+(3*3)+(2*9)+(1*4)=186
186 % 10 = 6
So 66983-94-6 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
