2’-Deoxy-2’-fluoro Cytidine (Cat No.:R055260) is a modified nucleoside with notable implications in medicinal chemistry and antiviral drug development. By replacing a hydroxyl group with a fluorine atom at the 2’ position of the deoxyribose sugar, this compound is designed to interfere with viral RNA synthesis and replication, particularly in the context of RNA viruses like hepatitis C and other infections. Its incorporation into viral RNA can lead to chain termination during replication. Research suggests its potential as a component in novel antiviral therapies. Its targeted mechanism and applications in virology highlight its role as a valuable tool in the fight against viral diseases.
