5'-Uridylic acid, 5-[1,2-bis[(2-hydroxyethyl)thio]ethyl]-2'-deoxy-, (R)-

Description:

5'-Uridylic acid, 5-[1,2-bis[(2-hydroxyethyl)thio]ethyl]-2'-deoxy-, (R)-, also known by its CAS number 88145-40-8, is a modified nucleotide that plays a role in various biochemical processes. This compound features a uridine base, which is a nucleoside composed of uracil and ribose, but is modified with a 2'-deoxy sugar, indicating the absence of an oxygen atom at the 2' position. The presence of a thioether group, specifically a 1,2-bis[(2-hydroxyethyl)thio]ethyl moiety, enhances its solubility and may influence its biological activity. The (R)- designation indicates the specific stereochemistry of the molecule, which can affect its interaction with biological targets. This compound may be utilized in research related to nucleic acid chemistry, drug development, and the study of cellular processes, particularly those involving RNA and its derivatives. Its unique structural features may also provide insights into the design of therapeutics or probes in molecular biology.
