L-Thymidine

Description:
L-Thymidine, with the CAS number 26879-47-0, is a nucleoside that plays a crucial role in the synthesis of DNA. It is composed of a thymine base linked to a deoxyribose sugar. This compound is characterized by its ability to participate in the formation of DNA strands, making it essential for cellular replication and repair processes. L-Thymidine is typically a white to off-white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and exhibits a melting point that varies depending on its form. It is often used in molecular biology and biochemistry as a substrate in various enzymatic reactions and as a building block in DNA synthesis. Additionally, L-Thymidine has applications in the pharmaceutical industry, particularly in the development of antiviral and anticancer therapies. Its biological activity is influenced by its structural properties, which allow it to mimic the natural nucleosides found in DNA, thus facilitating its incorporation into nucleic acids during replication.
