| Application: | Guanosine 5′-diphosphate (GDP) is used as a substrate of pyruvate kinase to produce GTP in support of RNA biosyntheis. GDP is used to study the kinetics and characteristics of GTPases such as those associated with G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR). GDP is also used to study cell signaling processes mediate by guanine nucleotide exchange factors. |
| Application: | Guanosine 5′-diphosphate disodium salt has been used: • in fluorescent metal nanoclusters selectivity of guanosine 3′-diphosphate-5′-di(tri) • in screening of fluorescence emission of hypocrellin A-zinc complex • as a component of assay buffers in the autoradiography of mice brain sections |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Guanosine based nucleosides play a key role in multiple cellular processes and generation growth factors. Elevated levels of guanosine 5′-diphosphate (GDP) is associated with the pathogenesis of neurological disorders. GDP is bound to G protein . G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) activate G proteins by exchanging the bound GDP to GTP. GDP is potent inhibitor agent of hepcidin- ferroportin complex and may be effective for promoting erythropoiesis and treating anemia of inflammation(AI). |
| General description: | Guanosine 5′-diphosphate (GDP) is a purine nucleotide and is interconvertible to guanosine by the action of ectonucleotidases and by nucleoside phosphorylase into guanine. GDP is majorly acted upon by 5′‐ectonucleotidases in neuronal cells. |
