Uridine

Uridine is a pyrimidine nucleoside composed of uracil (Cay-26088) and ribose. It forms complementary base pairs with adenosine (Cay-21232) in RNA. Uridine can be catabolized to uracil via uridine phosphorylase, and it can be phosphorylated to UMP (Cay-35382) by uridine-cytidine kinase (UCK). It is replaced with thymidine (Cay-20519) in DNA.CAS Number: 58-96-8. Synonyms: NSC 20256, 1-beta-D-Ribofuranosyluracil, Uracil-1-beta-D-ribofuranoside, beta-Uridine. Molecular Formula: C9H12N2O6.
