Purine

Purine is an organic compound that is one of the constituent nucleotides of DNA and RNA, which are the building blocks of the genetic code. Purine bases - adenine and guanine, which perform key functions in heredity, are structural components of DNA and are a kind of “building blocks” from which genes and chromosomes are built. It can also be found in many other substances, such as glucose, nucleosides, enzymes and B vitamins, but the bulk of it is found in DNA and blood cells.

Purine is important for our body and participates in the cell cycle, controlling the process of replication of genetic information. It is also involved in the synthesis of nucleotide bases and the formation of nucleophilic residues in the protein molecule. Recent studies have shown that purine also plays a role in regulating gene expression, which plays a key role in the development and aging of the body.

The importance of purine in our body cannot be overestimated. Some medical studies have linked elevated purine levels to various diseases, including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases, diabetes or cancer. In other words, purine may be a critical factor in the process of triggering cell development, health, metabolism and reproduction of the body, and at the same time it may be responsible for the onset and progression of various diseases.

However, not everything depends only on purine, one of the most important compounds in our body. Many factors and other molecules play a role in the body's interaction with the environment, including macronutrients such as calcium, sodium, potassium,
