Apexbio Technology LLC Ara-CTP 50ul (100 mM)

Supplier:  Apexbio Technology LLC B79850.05

Ara-CTP is a sugar-modified nucleoside analogue composed of cytosine attached to arabinose phosphorylated as a triphosphate Ara-CTP exerts its biological activity primarily by incorporating into nucleic acid strands during nucleic acid synthesis thereby interfering with DNA polymerase and RNA polymerase activities Upon integration Ara-CTP disrupts nucleic acid elongation and replication steps resulting in strand termination or abnormal formation Based on these pharmacological properties Ara-CTP holds research potential in antiviral studies investigating viral replication mechanisms evaluating polymerase specificity identifying viral enzyme inhibitors and serving as a probe in biochemical assays exploring nucleotide-binding interactions and nucleic acid synthesis fidelity
