5-Methylcytosine-d4
Based on 1 Customer Validation
5-Methylcytosine-d4 is the deuterium labeled 5-Methylcytosine (HY-W008091). 5-Methylcytosine is a well-characterized DNA modification in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. 5-Methylcytosine forms symmetrical methylation on CpG dinucleotides in DNA, stabilizes tRNA/rRNA structure in RNA, and affects mRNA translation. 5-Methylcytosine can be oxidized to generate 5hmC, 5fC, and 5caC. 5-Methylcytosine can be used in epigenetics, developmental biology, and the study of diseases such as colorectal cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Biological Activity
Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
1. This compound can be used as a tracer
2. This compound can be used as an internal standard for quantitative analysis by NMR, GC-MS, or LC-MS.

Solvent & Solubility
H2O : 7.14 mg/mL (55.28 mM; Need ultrasonic)
DMSO : 5 mg/mL (38.71 mM; ultrasonic and warming and heat to 80°C; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.
