5-Methyl modified cytidine triphosphate for in vitro transcription synthesis of mRNA
Featured Products
5-Methyl-CTP is a modified cytidine triphosphate where the cytosine base is methylated at the fifth carbon position. This modification increases mRNA stability and translation efficiency, making it highly valuable for in vitro mRNA synthesis. When incorporated during mRNA synthesis, 5-Methyl-CTP mimics the methylation patterns of natural mRNA, thus preventing rapid degradation by cellular degradation mechanisms. Methylation not only enhances mRNA stability but also improves its translation efficiency within cells, which makes it broadly applicable in gene expression research and related mRNA drug development.
