| | N(4)-methylcytidine Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | N4-Methylcytidine is a nucleoside analogue that inhibits synthesis of human mitochondrial DNA by inhibiting bacterial enzyme uridine-cytidine kinase, which converts uridine to cytidine in the mitochondria. N4-Methylcytidine has been shown to be potent against viruses such as HIV and herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in cell culture studies. This antiviral effect is due to the interference with viral dna replication and protein synthesis by preventing incorporation of uracil into dna and ribosomal RNA. | | Definition | ChEBI: N4-Methylcytidine is a pyrimidine nucleoside. |
