Orotidine 5′-Monophosphate Trisodium Salt (Cat No.:C000728) is a compound formed by the combination of orotidine 5′-monophosphate (OMP) with three sodium ions, enhancing its solubility and stability. OMP is a key intermediate in the de novo biosynthesis of pyrimidine nucleotides, crucial for DNA and RNA synthesis. This trisodium salt form is likely employed in biochemical and enzymatic studies to investigate pyrimidine metabolism or as a precursor in nucleotide synthesis.
