| Thymidine Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Thymidine is a pyrimidine nucleoside that is composed of the pyrimidine base thymine attached to the sugar deoxyribose. As a constituent of DNA, thymidine pairs with adenine in the DNA double helix. In cell biology it is used to synchronize the cells in G1/early S phase. | | Chemical Properties | White crystalline powder | | Uses | Constituent of deoxyribonucleic acid | | Uses | Used for e.g. syntheses of zidovudine. Attributes For further information please contact us Contact | | Uses | Thymidine is used in the syntheses of active pharmaceutical ingredient such as zidovudine. It also pairs with deoxyadenosine in double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid. It is used to synchronize the cells in G1/early S phase in cell biology. | | Definition | The nucleoside
(deoxyriboside) of thymine. Occurs in DNA. | | Definition | The NUCLEOSIDE formed when thymine is linked to
D-ribose by a β-glycosidic bond. | | Definition | thymidine: A nucleoside consistingof one thymine molecule linked to ad-doxyribose sugar molecule. | | General Description | Thymidine is also referred to as pyrimidine deoxynucleoside. Deoxythymidine is a nucleoside present in DNA. In a DNA double stranded structure, thymidine pairs with deoxyadeninosine. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | Thymidine is useful in cell synchronization during S-phase. In the salvage pathway of pyrimidines, pyrimidine phosphorylase reversibly converts thymine to thymidine. | | Safety Profile | Moderately toxic by
intraperitoneal route. An experimental
teratogen. Experimental reproductive
effects. Human mutation data reported.
When heated to decomposition it emits
toxic fumes of NOx. | | Purification Methods | Crystallise -thymidine from ethyl acetate, MeOH/Et2O (m 188o) or H2O (as 2H2O m 189o). It is soluble in water and hot organic solvents. The picrate has m 230o (from EtOH). |
