Concentrations of the enantiomers of 2'-deoxy-3'-thiacytidine (BCH 189) have been monitored during enantiospecific biotransformation catalyzed by cytidine deaminase. This enzymatic reaction is monitored by capillary electrophoresis (CE) over a 51-h time period. The use of dimethyl-beta-cyclodextrin as a chiral electrolyte additive in a pH 2.3 phosphate buffer system gives enantiomeric separation with results for peak efficiencies, resolution, and analysis time of the order of 25,000 plates, > 1.5 and 30 min, respectively. The features of the CE method are compared with those of the previously favored chiral HPLC method.

D000998	Antiviral Agents	Agents used in the prophylaxis or therapy of VIRUS DISEASES. Some of the ways they may act include preventing viral replication by inhibiting viral DNA polymerase; binding to specific cell-surface receptors and inhibiting viral penetration or uncoating; inhibiting viral protein synthesis; or blocking late stages of virus assembly.

D001711	Biotransformation	The chemical alteration of an exogenous substance by or in a biological system. The alteration may inactivate the compound or it may result in the production of an active metabolite of an inactive parent compound. The alterations may be divided into METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE I and METABOLIC DETOXICATION, PHASE II.
D013237	Stereoisomerism	The phenomenon whereby compounds whose molecules have the same number and kind of atoms and the same atomic arrangement, but differ in their spatial relationships.

D016047	Zalcitabine	A dideoxynucleoside compound in which the 3'-hydroxy group on the sugar moiety has been replaced by a hydrogen. This modification prevents the formation of phosphodiester linkages which are needed for the completion of nucleic acid chains. The compound is a potent inhibitor of HIV replication at low concentrations, acting as a chain-terminator of viral DNA by binding to reverse transcriptase. Its principal toxic side effect is axonal degeneration resulting in peripheral neuropathy.	2',3'-Dideoxycytidine,Dideoxycytidine,ddC (Antiviral),HIVID Roche,Hivid,NSC-606170,2',3' Dideoxycytidine,NSC 606170,NSC606170
