Used in biochemical research as a derivative of cyclic AMP (cAMP), specifically for the development and use in immunoassays, radioimmunoassays (RIA), and enzyme immunoassays (EIA) to quantify cAMP levels in biological samples. The 2'-O-succinyl modification enables conjugation to carrier proteins or tracers, aiding in the production of specific antibodies and facilitating sensitive detection of cAMP. This analog is applied in studies of cell signaling pathways, enzyme kinetics (e.g., protein kinase A activation), receptor binding, and intracellular signaling mechanisms, helping to investigate cAMP's role in cellular processes like metabolism, gene expression, and cell communication, as well as the molecular basis of related diseases.
