DescriptionThe methylation of carbon 5 in cytidine (m5C, 5-methylcytidine) has been identified as a widespread epitranscriptomic mark. 5-Methylcytidine is mostly found in tRNA and rRNA. 5-Methylcytidine is a modified nucleoside derived from 5-methylcytosine and is a minor constituent of RNA and DNA for certain organisms. Roughly one to two residues of 5-methylcytidine occur in every 1,000 RNA residues. It has been used in epigenetics research, especially in studies involving DNA methylation processes involved in the establishment of genomic imprinting and the control of gene expression and differentiation.
Uses5-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.
Uses5-Methylcytidine is used in studies of DNA methylation processes (epigenetics).
General Description5-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).
