🔬 Common Scientific Applications
🧬 RNA biosynthesis & salvage — Core pyrimidine nucleoside for studying RNA synthesis, turnover, and the cytidine/cytidylate salvage pathways.
📈 Cell proliferation & metabolism — Tracer in RNA synthesis assays and metabolic flux studies involving cytidine triphosphate (CTP) and uridine–cytidine interconversion.
🧫 Auxotrophy & metabolic rescue — Restores growth in pyrG, cyt, or cdd mutants in bacteria and yeast; used in studies on pyrimidine salvage and nucleotide pool regulation.
⚖️ Nucleotide pool modulation — Supplement to adjust CTP/dCTP balance, investigate feedback regulation of ribonucleotide reductase, and probe genome-replication dynamics.
🧲 Enzyme assays & standards — Substrate or ligand for cytidine deaminase, cytidine kinase, and nucleoside transporters; used in enzymology, ITC, and HPLC reference panels.
🧪 Antiviral & anticancer research — Parent nucleoside for analogues such as cytarabine (Ara-C), gemcitabine, and 5-azacytidine; control in nucleoside analog screening.
🧬 Epigenetics & methylation studies — Base compound for 5-methylcytidine, 5-hydroxymethylcytidine, and 5-azacytidine research; applied in DNA/RNA methylation mapping and demethylase assays.
🧫 Mitochondrial & RNA editing research — Used in studies of mitochondrial RNA import, C-to-U editing pathways, and CMP/CTP pool homeostasis.
📊 Analytical QC & calibration — Retention-time and linearity standard for cytidine/nucleoside panels in HPLC and LC-MS analyses.
🎓 Teaching & demonstrations — Safe nucleoside for biochemistry labs illustrating nucleoside metabolism, chromatography, and RNA synthesis principles.
