The molecule consists of anadenineattached to aribosevia a β-N9-glycosidic bond. Adenosine is one of the fournucleosidebuilding blocks ofRNA(and its derivativedeoxyadenosineis a building block ofDNA), which are essential for all life on Earth. Its derivatives include the energy carriersadenosine mono-, di-, and triphosphate, also known as AMP/ADP/ATP.Cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP) is pervasive insignal transduction. Adenosine is used as an intravenous medication for somecardiac arrhythmias. Adenosyl(abbreviatedAdoor5'-dAdo) is the chemical group formed by removal of the 5′-hydroxy (OH) group. It is found inadenosylcobalamin(an active form ofvitamin B12) and as a radical in theradical SAMenzymes.
