2-Aminopurine（Cat No.:I020804）is a compound that functions as a specific inhibitor of protein kinase R (PKR), a double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase. PKR is an important enzyme involved in cellular responses to viral infections and stress signals. By inhibiting PKR, 2-aminopurine can modulate the activation of PKR and its downstream signaling pathways. This compound has been widely used in research to investigate the role of PKR in various cellular processes and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target in viral infections and related diseases.
