Product Description
5-Methyl-2'-O,4'-C-methylenecytidine is a cytosine nucleoside analog. Cytidine analogs have a mechanism of inhibiting DNA methyltransferase and have potential anti-metabolic and anti-tumor activities.
5-Methyl-2'-O,4'-C-methylenecytidine is a cytidine nucleoside analog and an LNA (locked nucleic acid)-related nucleoside. Cytidine analogs have a mechanism of inhibiting DNA methyltransferases (such as Zebularine) and have potential anti-metabolic and anti-tumor activities. The 2'-O,4'-C-methylene bridge locks the sugar conformation, enhancing binding affinity to complementary nucleic acids. It is a research-grade compound not approved for human therapeutic use.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
