    Product Description

    (−)-Neplanocin A potently and irreversibly inactivates SAH hydrolase (Ki = 8.39 nM).1 It has antitumor activity against mouse leukemia L1210 cells and broad-spectrum antiviral activity.2,3,4,1 Neplanocin A is more potent against vesicular stomatitis than the reversible SAH hydrolase inhibitor 3-deazaneplanocin (ID50 = 0.07 and 0.3 μg/ml, respectively).3,5
