Application

Hypoxanthine has been used:
  • to gavage mice and to evaluate the activity of xanthine oxidase (XO) in pasteurized whole milk in vivo in potassium oxonate (PO) -induced mouse model of hyperuricemia
  • as a supplement in Iscove′s modified Dulbecco′s medium (IMDM) medium to cultivate in-vitro cell line (EL-1 cells)
  • as a pure standard for the quantification of hypoxanthine in vitreous fluid sample using high-performance liquid chromatography-ultra-violet (HPLC-UV) for the estimation of post-mortem interval
Hypoxanthine is a nutrient additive for a variety of cell culture applications involving bacterial, parasite (Plasmodium falciparum) and animal cells. Hypoxanthine is a component of selection media used in hybridoma technologies.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Hypoxanthine acts as an intermediate in purine metabolism. It elicits a vital role as a 5′-base of the anticodon in a few transfer-RNAs. Though similar to guanine (Gua), it is devoid of the exocyclic amino group at C(2) position. It may be used as a substrate to study the specificity and kinetics of hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferases.

Questions

  1. What are the instructions for preparing a 1M hypoxanthine stock solution?

    1 answer
    1. The solubility of H9377 has been tested at a concentration of 50 mg/ml in a mixture of 2 parts formic acid to 1 part water, equivalent to a 5% solution. While this may not represent the maximum solubility in the formic acid water mixture, it is the available data. The molecular weight of Hypoxanthine is 136.11 amu, and a 1M solution can be prepared by dissolving 136.11 grams in 1 liter of solvent, provided that there is a suitable solvent for dissolution. This amount can be scaled down to the desired volume. Aliquots should be stored at -20°C for up to 6 months.
