5-METHYLCYTIDINE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

White powder

Uses

5-Methylcytidine is a derivative of Cytidine (C998300), found in ribonucleic acids of animals, plants and bacteria. 5-Methylcytidine is a nucleoside found in liver emulsion that can inhibit the growth of spontaneous tumors of mammary gland origin in mice. 5-Methylcytidine is one of many nucleosides that can be used as biomedical marker using liquid chromatography and ion trap mass spectrometry coupling.

Uses

5-Methylcytidine is used in studies of DNA methylation processes (epigenetics).

Definition

ChEBI: 5-methylcytidine is a methylcytidine.

General Description

5-Methylcytidine is a component of RNA in Escherichia coli. It is present in the RNA of plant, animal and bacterial origin. It is one of the C derivative present in transfer RNA (tRNA).

Biochem/physiol Actions

5-Methylcytidine is an alkylated pyrimidine plays an important role enhancing the stacking in A- and B- helices of nucleic acid, results in increase of the melting temperature and improves thermal stability leading to structural stabilization.
