Product Description
Cytidine is a nucleoside consisting of the nitrogenous base cytosine linked to a ribose sugar. It is a fundamental component of RNA and plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism, gene expression, and nucleotide biosynthesis. Cytidine is involved in various biological processes, including the synthesis of cytidine triphosphate (CTP), which is essential for RNA transcription, phospholipid metabolism, and cell signaling. It is also used in pharmaceutical and biochemical research.
