3’-Deoxy-3’-fluoro Thymidine(Cat No.:R002363)is a nucleoside analog known for its antiviral and anticancer properties. By mimicking natural thymidine, it incorporates into DNA during replication, disrupting the synthesis process and causing chain termination. This compound is particularly valuable in research on retroviruses, including HIV, and certain cancers, where rapid DNA synthesis occurs. Its structural modification at the 3′ position enhances its stability and resistance to enzymatic degradation, making it a potent tool for studying DNA polymerase mechanisms and developing therapeutic strategies targeting viral replication and cancer cell proliferation.

N.m.r. studies of the flexibility of the glycosyl ring in thymidine and uridine nucleosides.Hicks N,Howarth OW,Hutchinson DW, PMID: 1797374 </br><span>Abstract:</span> 1H-N.m.r. spectroscopy at various temperatures has been used to investigate the flexibility of the glycosyl ring and to calculate the percentage of N- and S-character in the most favoured conformations in solution adopted by various pyrimidine deoxyribonucleosides. The position and orientation of substituents have a definite and predictable influence on the conformation of the deoxyribose ring in these nucleosides. The deoxyribose rings in the nucleosides studied were, in general, flexible except for those of 3/’-deoxy-3/’-fluoro- and 3/’-azido-3/’-deoxy-thymidine and 2/’-deoxy-2/’-fluoro-5-methyl-arabinosyluracil. |
