CYTIDINE 5'-TRIPHOSPHATE SODIUM SALT

Application

Aptamers, In vitro Transcription, Laboratory Developed Tests (LDT) & Analyte Specific Reagents (ASR), PCR & RT-PCR. Cytidine 5′-triphosphate disodium salt has been used:
for the conversion of adenosine monophosphate (AMP) to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) in luminometry analysis
in the preparation of ribonucleotide 5′-triphosphate precursors stocks for large-scale RNA synthesis
to perform in vitro transcription

Biological Activity

Cytidine 5′-triphosphate (CTP) prevents the action of aspartate carbamoyltransferase. This enzyme participates in pyrimidine biosynthesis. Like adenosine triphosphate (ATP), CTP serves as a molecule of high energy. It acts as a coenzyme in glycerophospholipid biosynthesis and protein glycosylation.
