• Beschreibung: 3'-O-Methylcytidine is an acidic guanine nucleoside that is a component of RNA. It is a biochemical building block and a co-substrate in the synthesis of DNA and RNA. 3'-O-Methylcytidine has been shown to be hydroxylated by the enzyme cytidine 5'-monophosphate, which leads to its termination when it reaches the ribosome. This nucleoside also inhibits bacterial growth through inhibition of ribosomal function, leading to reduced protein synthesis. 3'-O-Methylcytidine can act as an environmental pollutant, especially in chloride environments such as seawater. It has been found to be globally distributed in dinucleotides and monomethylated forms, with biosynthetic pathways similar to other nucleic acids.
