Product profile
5-Fluorocytidine is classified as halogenated nucleosides (Formula C9H12FN3O5; molecular weight 261.21 g/mol).
5-Fluorocytidine is commonly assessed in siRNA, antisense and aptamer-style designs where ribose modification is used to tune stability and binding.
For 5-Fluorocytidine, coupling, deprotection and biological performance remain sequence- and position-dependent.
