Wikipedia

  1. Guanosine

    Guanosine (symbol G or Guo) is a purine nucleoside comprising guanine attached to a ribose (ribofuranose) ring via a β-N9-glycosidic bond. Guanosine can be phosphorylated to become guanosine monophosphate (GMP), cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), guanosine diphosphate (GDP), and guanosine triphosphate (GTP). These forms play important roles in various biochemical processes such as synthesis of nucleic acids and proteins, photosynthesis, muscle contraction, and intracellular signal transduction (cGMP). When guanine is attached by its N9 nitrogen to the C1 carbon of a deoxyribose ring it is known as deoxyguanosine.

  1. guanosine

    Guanosine is a purine nucleoside comprising guanine attached to a ribose (ribofuranose) ring via a β-N9-glycosidic bond. It plays a critical role in various biochemical processes such as biosynthesis of nucleic acids, protein synthesis, and cell signaling. Guanosine is also important in numerous biochemical reactions in the cell that involve G-proteins and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). It occurs in both deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).

The antiviral drug aciclovir, often used in herpes treatment, is structurally similar to guanosine. Guanosine is required for an RNA splicing reaction in mRNA, when a "self-splicing" intron removes itself from the mRNA message by cutting at both ends, re-ligating, and leaving just the exons on either side to be translated into protein.
