2'-deoxyguanosine

2'-Deoxyguanosine (Guanine deoxyriboside) is a purine nucleoside that is recognized by members of the 2'-dG-II family.2'-Deoxyguanosine has been associated with aging, mutation, and carcinogenesis, and is oxidized by molecular oxygen.

2'-Deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate disodium (5'-dGMP disodium) is a GTP derivative that serves as an oxidizable target and is used in forming polycomplexes with other compounds.

2'-Deoxyguanosine monohydrate (Guanine-2'-deoxyriboside) is a nucleoside consisting of the base guanine and the sugar deoxyribose. It is like guanosine, but with one oxygen atom removed. It is a nucleoside component of DNA. 2'-Deoxyguanosine monohydrate can be converted to 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) due to hydroxyl radical attack at the C8 of guanine. 8-OHdG is a sensitive marker of the DNA damage This damage, if left unrepaired, has been proposed to contribute to mutagenicity and cancer promotion.

8-Hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is a good biomarker for risk assessment of various cancers and degenerative diseases.
