5-Methyluridine
5-Methyluridine (Thymine riboside) is an endogenous modified nucleoside. Elevated levels of such methylated bases in fluids are associated with malignancies, reflecting the widespread DNA hypermethylation targeted by epigenetic therapies. This compound is used in research exploring cancer biomarkers and the mechanisms of hypomethylating agents in vitro.
