5-Azidomethyl-uridine (Cat No.: I042576) is a modified nucleoside featuring an azidomethyl group at the 5-position of the uracil base. This structural modification introduces a reactive azide moiety, enabling bioorthogonal conjugation via copper-catalyzed or strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (click chemistry). It is commonly used for labeling, tracking, and functionalizing RNA molecules in biochemical and cellular studies. 5-Azidomethyl-uridine is valuable in synthetic biology, nucleic acid therapeutics, and molecular probe development, allowing site-specific modifications and exploration of RNA structure, dynamics, and interactions.
