CAS 14985-32-1
:Uridine, 2'-deoxy-5-(methylthio)-
Description:
Uridine, 2'-deoxy-5-(methylthio)-, also known by its CAS number 14985-32-1, is a nucleoside analog characterized by the presence of a methylthio group at the 5-position of the uridine base. This compound consists of a ribofuranose sugar that is deoxygenated at the 2' position, which distinguishes it from standard uridine. The methylthio substitution can influence the compound's biological activity, potentially affecting its role in nucleic acid metabolism and interactions with enzymes. Typically, nucleoside analogs like this one are studied for their potential therapeutic applications, particularly in antiviral and anticancer research, due to their ability to interfere with nucleic acid synthesis. The structural modifications can enhance the stability and bioavailability of the compound, making it a subject of interest in medicinal chemistry. Additionally, its solubility and reactivity can vary based on the surrounding conditions, which is crucial for its application in biological systems.

2'-Deoxy-5-(methylthio)-uridine
CAS:<p>2'-Deoxy-5-(methylthio)-uridine is a synthetic nucleoside that is used for antiviral and anticancer purposes. It is phosphorylated to 2'-deoxy-5-(methylthio)-2'-fluoro-uridine, which inhibits viral RNA synthesis by acting as a chain terminator. 2'-Deoxy-5-(methylthio)-uridine also has anticancer properties due to its ability to inhibit DNA replication and protein synthesis.</p>Formula:C10H14N2O5SPurity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:274.29 g/mol
