A convenient method using capillary electrophoresis (CE) without sample labeling was developed to analyze the deamination of a series of D-/L-6-cyclopropylamino guanosine analogs by mouse liver homogenate, mouse liver microsome, and adenosine deaminase (ADA). A two-step process involving a 6-amino guanosine intermediate formed by oxidative N-dealkylation was demonstrated in the metabolism of 6-cyclopropylamino guanosine to 6-hydroxy guanosine. The results indicated that the transformation rates of different prodrugs to the active form varied greatly, which were closely correlated with the configuration of nucleosides and the structure of glycosyl groups.
