Cannabis Compound Identification
Common NameInosine
DescriptionInosine, also known as hypoxanthosine or inotin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as purine nucleosides. Purine nucleosides are compounds comprising a purine base attached to a ribosyl or deoxyribosyl moiety. A purine nucleoside in which hypoxanthine is attached to ribofuranose via a beta-N(9)-glycosidic bond. Inosine is a moderately basic compound (based on its pKa). Inosine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within humans, inosine participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, inosine can be biosynthesized from inosinic acid through its interaction with the enzyme cytosolic purine 5'-nucleotidase. In addition, inosine can be converted into hypoxanthine and ribose 1-phosphate through its interaction with the enzyme purine nucleoside phosphorylase. In humans, inosine is involved in the metabolic disorder called the gout or kelley-seegmiller syndrome pathway. Inosine is a potentially toxic compound. Inosine, with regard to humans, has been found to be associated with several diseases such as ulcerative colitis, degenerative disc disease, kidney disease, and gout; inosine has also been linked to the inborn metabolic disorder xanthinuria type 1. Inosine is expected to be in Cannabis as all living plants are known to produce and metabolize it.

Uniprot ID:

Transporters

General function:
Involved in nucleoside transmembrane transporter activity
Specific function:
Functions as a polyspecific organic cation transporter, efficiently transporting many organic cations such as monoamine neurotransmitters 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium and biogenic amines including serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine and epinephrine. May play a role in regulating central nervous system homeostasis of monoamine neurotransmitters. May be involved in luminal transport of organic cations in the kidney and seems to use luminal proton gradient to drive organic cation reabsorption. Does not seem to transport nucleoside and nucleoside analogs such as uridine, cytidine, thymidine, adenosine, inosine, guanosine, and azidothymidine. In (PubMed:16873718) adenosine is efficiently transported but in a fashion highly sensitive to extracellular pH, with maximal activity in the pH range 5.5 to 6.5. Glu-206 is essential for the cation selectivity and may function as the charge sensor for cationic substrates. Transport is chloride and sodium-independent but appears to be sensitive to changes in membrane potential. Weakly inhibited by the classical inhibitors of equilibrative nucleoside transport, dipyridamole, dilazep, and nitrobenzylthioinosine. May play a role in the regulation of extracellular adenosine concentrations in cardiac tissues, in particular during ischemia
