Methoxsalen (Oxsoralen) a naturally occurring furocoumarin compound found in several species of plants, including Psoralea corylifolia, is a compound used to treat psoriasis, eczema, vitiligo and some cutaneous Lymphomas in conjunction with exposing the skin to sunlight. It is a photoactive substance that forms DNA adducts in the presence of ultraviolet an irradiation. After activation it binds preferentially to the guanine and cytosine moieties of DNA, leading to cross-linking of DNA, thus inhibiting DNA synthesis and function.

| 5-Phenyluracil
5-Phenyluracil is a pyrimidine derivative, a class of heterocyclic aromatic organic compounds crucial in biochemistry. It serves as a synthetic nucleoside analogue, meaning it mimics the structure of naturally occurring nucleosides like uridine. This structural similarity allows it to participate in biochemical reactions, often interfering with normal cellular processes, making it a valuable tool in studying nucleic acid metabolism and developing antiviral and anticancer agents. |
