General description
Cytidine 5'-triphosphate is a pyrimidine nucleoside
triphosphate that is used in the synthesis of RNA by RNA
polymerases. It can participate in a variety of biochemical reactions.
Cytidine 5′-triphosphate
is a nucleoside triphosphate with a pyrimidine ring. It is present in RNA.
Application
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
Biochem/physiol Actions
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.
P2X4 purinergic receptor agonist.
