ISOBARBITURIC ACID Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

light yellow to beige granular powder

Uses

A 5-hydroxy derivative of the nucleobase Uracil (U801000) and an isomer of Barbituric Acid (B118650). Studies show that it can form stable base pairs with all four bases in a DNA duplex. It has been u sed as oxidative DNA damage biomarker in tissue engineered skin

Uses

2,4,5-Trihydroxypyrimidine studies show that it can form stable base pairs with all four bases in a DNA duplex. It has been used as oxidative DNA damage biomarker in tissue engineered skin. It acts as an antagonist of uracil in the growth of Lactobacillus casei.
