QUICK LINKS
Cordycepin 5′-triphosphate lithium salt, often explored in the field of molecular biology, is a nucleotide analogue that is incorporated into RNA in place of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Researchers leverage this compound to study RNA synthesis and regulation, as its incorporation leads to the termination of RNA chain elongation. This characteristic makes it useful for investigating the mechanisms of RNA polymerase enzymes and the effects of premature transcription termination. The lithium salt form provides enhanced solubility and stability in the aqueous solutions used in enzymatic reactions and RNA-related experiments. Additionally, its utility extends to the study of nucleotide metabolism and the exploration of mechanisms underlying RNA-based cellular processes, offering insights into fundamental aspects of gene expression and regulation.
