| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
N4-Methylcytidine is a nucleoside analogue that inhibits synthesis of human mitochondrial DNA by inhibiting bacterial enzyme uridine-cytidine kinase, which converts uridine to cytidine in the mitochondria. N4-Methylcytidine has been shown to be potent against viruses such as HIV and herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in cell culture studies. This antiviral effect is due to the interference with viral dna replication and protein synthesis by preventing incorporation of uracil into dna and ribosomal RNA. | [Uses]
N4-Methylcytidine (Nsc518744) is a cytidine nucleoside analog. Cytidine analogs have a mechanism of inhibiting DNA methyltransferases (such as Zebularine, HY-13420), and have potential anti-metabolic and anti-tumor activities[1]. | [Definition]
