Cytidine 5-monophosphate

CAS NO: 63-37-6

 

​Cytidine 5'-monophosphate (CMP) is a nucleotide that consists of cytidine and a phosphate group. It serves as a building block for RNA (ribonucleic acid) and is involved in various cellular processes. CMP is important for the synthesis of RNA molecules, as it contributes to the formation of the RNA backbone. It also plays a role in the regulation of gene expression and acts as a substrate for enzymes involved in nucleic acid metabolism. CMP is essential for the proper functioning of cells and is involved in processes such as protein synthesis and cellular signaling.
