General description

Cytidine 5′-diphosphate (CDP) is synthesized from cytidine monophosphate (CMP) or uridine monophosphate (UMP) by the transfer of phosphoryl group, catalyzed by the enzyme uridylate kinase (UMPK). CTP synthetase catalyzes the conversion of CTP to CDP intermediates like CDP-diacylglycerol, CDP-choline and CDP-ethanolamine for phospholipid biosynthesis.

Application

Cytidine 5′-diphosphate sodium salt hydrate has been used:
  • as a substrate in nucleoside diphosphatase (NDPase) enzyme histochemistry assay of gold fish eye sections
  • in ribonucleotide reductase assay
  • dCDP formation assay.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cytidine 5′-diphosphate (CDP) is used as a substrate of nucleoside diphosphatase kinase to produce CTP for supporting DNA and RNA biosynthesis and of ribonucleotide reductase to product dCMP.

Protocols

ZIC-cHILIC is a densely bonded zwitterionic stationary phase with phosphorylcholine functional groups covalently attached to silica.

HILIC separation is an alternative that permits sensitive MS detection and without the use of ion-pair reagents.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
