IMP, IDP, and ITP Analyzed by HPLC

The figure shows the optimized separation of ITP ( Inosine 5’-monophosphate) , IDP ( Inosine 5’-diphosphate) and IMP ( Inosine 5’-triphosphate) in the order of increasing Phosphate content similar to anion exchange. The presence of at least one impurity near ITP and possibly a second near IMP precluded accurate determination of peak symmetry.

 

Peaks:
1. IMP – Inosine 5’-monophosphate,   2. IDP – Inosine 5’-diphosphate,   3. ITP – Inosine 5’-triphosphate

Method Conditions
Column: Cogent UDA™, 4 µm, 100 Å
Catalog No.: 40031-05P-2
Dimensions: 2.1 x 50 mm

Mobile Phase:

-- A: DI Water / 16.0mM Ammonium Formate
-- B: 90% Acetonitrile / 10% DI Water / 16.0mM Ammonium Acetate

Gradient:
Time (minutes) %B
0 100
1.5 100
13 30
20 30
20.1 100

Temperature:
25˚C
Post Time: 3 minutes
Injection vol.: 1 μL
Flow rate: 0.4 mL / minute
Detection: UV @ 254 nm

Sample Preparation:
Stock Solution: 1 mg / mL solutions in DI Water. Samples were diluted 1:10 into 50% Acetonitrile / 50% DI Water mixture. Before injection, samples were filtered through a 0.45 µm Nylon Syringe Filter (MICROSOLV Tech Corp).

t 0 : 0.7 minutes


Note: Deficiency of the enzyme ITP Pyrophosphohydrolase is a common genetic defect in human populations and has aroused recent interest for its putative pharmacogenetic relevance to Thiopurine therapy. The enzyme is part of a nucleotide ‘‘futile cycle’’, which converts IMP to IDP and ITP then back to IMP.
