Product Information
Name:5-Vinylcytidine
Brand:Biosynth
Description:5-Vinylcytidine is a nucleoside analog used in research to study DNA demethylation. It is an orthogonal molecule that can be used in assays to distinguish between different types of methylases. 5-Vinylcytidine is able to oxidize and formylate the N5 position of thymine, which leads to DNA demethylation. The mechanism of this process is not fully understood, but it may involve translocation or homologous recombination. 5-Vinylcytidine has been shown to react with alkyl groups, leading to its use as a probe for biochemical reactions involving methyltransferase enzymes.
