Long-term reconstitution of the mouse hematopoietic system by embryonic stem cell-derived fetal liver.

abstract：:The effects of adenosine and adenosine analogs on adenylate cyclases from several tissues have been examined. Two adenosine-reactive sites have been identified: (i) the "R" site, occupancy of which usually leads to activation of cyclase and which requires integrity of the ribose ring for activity, and (ii) the "P" sit...
