Uridine

5-BrdU (BrdU) is a nucleoside analog that competes with thymidine for incorporation into DNA. 5-BrdU is commonly used in the detection of proliferating cells.

Uridine (β-Uridine) is a nucleoside compound composed of uracil and a ribose ring, which are connected by a β-N1-glycosidic bond.

4-Thiouridine is a ribonucleoside analog, it is widely used in RNA analysis and (m)RNA labeling. 4-Thiouridine inhibits rRNA synthesis and causes a nucleolar stress response.

Pseudouridine is an isomer of uridine and the most abundant modified nucleoside in non-coding RNA. It fine-tunes and stabilizes regional structures in rRNA and tRNA, maintaining their functions in mRNA decoding, ribosome assembly, processing, and translation. Pseudouridine-modified tRNA fragments can inhibit aberrant protein synthesis and hold promise for research on myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)-related leukemia..

Tetrahydrouridine dihydrate is potent inhibitor of cytidine deaminase (CDA), which competitively blocks the enzyme's active site more effectively than intrinsic cytidine.

Tetrahydrouridine dihydrate (THU dihydrate) is potent inhibitor of cytidine deaminase (CDA), which competitively blocks the enzyme's active site more effectively than intrinsic cytidine.

N1-methyl-pseudouridine (1-Methylpseudouridine), a methylpseudouridine, outperforms 5 mC and 5 mC/N1-methyl-pseudouridine in translation. N1-methyl-pseudouridine in mRNA enhances translation through eIF2α-dependent and independent mechanisms by increasing ribosome density.

5-Methyluridine (m⁵U) is an RNA modified nucleotide generated by RNA methyltransferases (such as TrmA and RumA), which mainly targets specific uracil sites in RNA molecules such as the T arm of tRNA and rRNA. 5-Methyluridine relies on enzyme recognition of RNA secondary/tertiary structures (such as the T loop of tRNA or the specific stem-loop structure of rRNA) and participates in physiological processes such as translation accuracy and ribosome function by stabilizing RNA folding or regulating base pairing.

2’-O-Methyluridine is a modified nucleoside that can be found in T. thermophile tRNA. 2’-O-Methyluridine level in serum is decreased in patients with breast cancer.

5-Bromouridine is a purine nucleoside analog. Purine nucleoside analogs have broad antitumor activity targeting indolent lymphoid malignancies. Anticancer mechanisms in this process rely on inhibition of DNA synthesis, induction of apoptosis, etc.

5-Azidomethyl-uridine is a click chemistry reagent containing an azide group. The azide function is widely used for coupling to alkyne-containing fragments via the renowned Click reaction.

2'-Deoxy-2'-fluoro-5-iodouridine (FIRU) is a nucleoside analog. When labeled with ¹²³I, 2'-Deoxy-2'-fluoro-5-iodouridine accumulates highly selectively in tumors expressing the HSV1-tk gene. Radiolabeled 2'-Deoxy-2'-fluoro-5-iodouridine enables imaging of adenovirus-mediated HSV1-tk suicide gene transfer.

5-Azidomethyl-2'-deoxyuridine (5-AmdU) is a purine nucleoside analog. 5-Azidomethyl-2'-deoxyuridine demonstrates effective radiosensitization in EMT6 tumor cells.. 5-Azidomethyl-2'-deoxyuridine is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Azide group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAc) with molecules containing Alkyne groups. It can also undergo strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups.

5-Formyl-2'-deoxyuridine is a product formed when the 5-methyl group of thymine in DNA undergoes oxidation due to exposure to gamma radiation or certain chemical agents. Serving as a biomarker of oxidative DNA damage, 5-formyl-2'-deoxyuridine is employed in investigations of DNA damage and repair mechanisms. Additionally, 5-Formyl-2'-deoxyuridine can be used in studies involving chemically crosslinking with peptides derived from the RecA protein.

5’-O-(4,4’-Dimethoxytrityl)-2’-O-methyluridine is a 2'-O-methyluridine derivative bearing a 5'-O-(4,4'-dimethoxytrityl) protecting group.5’-O-(4,4’-Dimethoxytrityl)-2’-O-methyluridine serves as a starting material for synthesis of a conformationally rigid cyclic uridylic acid derivative.

2',3'-O-Isopropylideneuridine is a modified uridine. 2',3'-O-Isopropylideneuridine can be used in the research of viral diseases (such as cytomegalovirus and varicella-zoster virus).

FdUMP triethylammonium is the intracellular active form of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). 5-FU is converted to FdUMP after being transported into the cell by various enzymes. FdUMP forms a ternary complex with thymidylate synthase and its cofactor 5,10-methylene tetrahydrofolate, inhibiting the activity of thymidylate synthase, which in turn leads to the suppression of DNA synthesis.

4-Thio-2’-deoxyuridine is a purine nucleoside analog. Purine nucleoside analogs have broad antitumor activity targeting indolent lymphoid malignancies. Anticancer mechanisms in this process rely on inhibition of DNA synthesis, induction of apoptosis, etc.

3’-Azido-3’-deoxyuridine is a purine nucleoside analogue. Purine nucleoside analogs have broad antitumor activity targeting indolent lymphoid malignancies. Anticancer mechanisms in this process rely on inhibition of DNA synthesis, induction of apoptosis, etc. 3’-Azido-3’-deoxyuridine is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Azide group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAc) with molecules containing Alkyne groups. It can also undergo strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups.

L-Uridine is an enantiomer of the normal RNA constituent D-uridine. L-Uridine can be isolated from the Polyporaceae fungus Poria cocos (Schw.). L-uridine acts as a phosphate acceptor for nucleoside phosphotransferases.
