Produktinformation

• Name: 6-Methyluridine
• Synonyme: 6-Methyl-D-uridine
• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: Methyluridine is a derivative of uridine that is used in the synthesis of pyrimidine nucleotides. This drug is also an inhibitor of orotidine 5′-monophosphate decarboxylase, which converts orotic acid to uracil. The conformational properties of methyluridine have been studied and found to be similar to those of other purine derivatives, such as adenine and guanine. In addition, methyluridine has been shown to inhibit the growth of typhimurium and increase the production of uracil in human lymphocytes. Methyluridine is metabolized by hydroxylation in liver microsomes, yielding 6-carboxylic acid.
