5-Methylcytidine is a derivative of Cytidine (C998300), found in ribonucleic acids of animals, plants and bacteria. 5-Methylcytidine is a nucleoside found in liver emulsion that can inhibit the growth of spontaneous tumors of mammary gland origin in mice. 5-Methylcytidine is one of many nucleosides that can be used as biomedical marker using liquid chromatography and ion trap mass spectrometry coupling. | [Definition]
ChEBI: 5-methylcytidine is a methylcytidine. | [General Description]
5-Methylcytidine is a component of RNA in Escherichia coli. It is present in the RNA of plant, animal and bacterial origin. It is one of the C derivative present in transfer RNA (tRNA). | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
5-Methylcytidine is an alkylated pyrimidine plays an important role enhancing the stacking in A- and B- helices of nucleic acid, results in increase of the melting temperature and improves thermal stability leading to structural stabilization. | [storage]
