Names

[ Name ]:
2(1H)-Pyrimidinone, 1-b-D-arabinofuranosyl-4-(methylamino)-

[Synonym ]:
N4-methyl-arabinofuranosyl-cytidine

Biological Activity

[Description]:

N4-Methylarabinocytidine is a cytidine nucleoside analog. Cytidine analogs have a mechanism of inhibiting DNA methyltransferases (such as Zebularine, HY-13420), and have potential anti-metabolic and anti-tumor activities[1].
