Poly(U) potassium
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Polyuridylic acid potassium is a polynucleotide. In protein synthesis systems based on active mammalian ribosomes, Polyuridylic acid potassium acts as a specific messenger to induce the biosynthesis of polyphenylalanine, with no effect on the incorporation of non-phenylalanine amino acids. Polyuridylic acid potassium serves as a template to promote the non-enzymatic synthesis of oligoadenylates.
