Product profile
2'-O,4'-C-Methylenecytidine is classified as modified nucleosides (Formula C10H13N3O5; molecular weight 255.23 g/mol).
2'-O,4'-C-Methylenecytidine is useful for high-affinity probes, SNP/mismatch-discrimination studies, antisense designs and short sequence probes.
For 2'-O,4'-C-Methylenecytidine, high-affinity monomers require careful positional design; over-substitution may increase off-target binding or complicate synthesis.
