DEF

The monophosphoric ester of guanine; i.e., the nucleotide containing guanine, D-ribose and phosphoric acid.

OBS

The phosphate may be esterified to either the 2, 3, or 5 carbon of ribose, yielding guanosine-2'-phosphate, guanosine-3'-phosphate (CAS number: 117-68-0), and guanosine-5'-phosphate (CAS number: 85-32-5), respectively. [The term "guanylic acid" is often loosely used to designate these specific forms). It is important in growth processes of the body. Derivation: (Commercial product): Isolation from nucleic acid of yeast or pancreas; also made synthetically. Use: Biochemical research, flavor potentiator (disodium salt).
