A constituent of nucleic acids originally isolated in yeast
Cytidine is a pyrimidine nucleoside and acts as a component of RNA. Cytidine is a precursor of uridine. Cytidine controls neuronal-glial glutamate cycling, affecting cerebral phospholipid metabolism, catecholamine synthesis, and mitochondrial function.
Application
Cytidine is used to synthesize enzyme inhibitors, antiviral agents, and anticancer agents. And also used as constituent of nucleic acids.
