Cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate
C10H14N5O8P (363.05799740000003)
Cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate, also known as cpmp or precursor z, hydrated, belongs to pyranopterins and derivatives class of compounds. Those are pterin derivatives in which a pyran ring is fused either to the pyrimidine ring or the pyrazine ring of the pterin moiety. Cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate is slightly soluble (in water) and an extremely strong acidic compound (based on its pKa). Cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate can be found in a number of food items such as european cranberry, vaccinium (blueberry, cranberry, huckleberry), peanut, and dill, which makes cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate (cPMP) is an experimental treatment for molybdenum cofactor deficiency type A, which was developed by José Santamaría-Araujo and Guenter Schwarz at the German universities TU Braunschweig and the University of Cologne .
