N4-Acetylcytosine

Description:
N4-Acetylcytosine is a modified nucleobase derived from cytosine, characterized by the presence of an acetyl group at the nitrogen-4 position of the pyrimidine ring. This modification can influence the molecule's hydrogen bonding properties and its interactions within nucleic acids. N4-Acetylcytosine is often studied in the context of epigenetics and gene regulation, as it can affect DNA stability and the binding affinity of proteins to DNA. The compound is typically white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in polar solvents. Its molecular structure allows it to participate in base pairing, albeit with altered thermodynamic properties compared to unmodified cytosine. The presence of the acetyl group can also impact the molecule's reactivity and its role in biochemical pathways. As a research chemical, N4-Acetylcytosine is utilized in various studies related to nucleic acid chemistry, molecular biology, and the development of therapeutic agents targeting epigenetic modifications.
