Cytidine Disodium triphosphate (CTP)
Cytidine Disodium triphosphate is a pyrimidine nucleoside triphosphate. Cytidine Disodium
triphosphate is an organic compound. It is also a hydrotrope, which gives energy to processes
in living cells, like muscle contraction, nerve impulse propagation, chemical synthesis, and
condensate dissolution. Found in all known forms of life, CTP consists of three phosphate
groups and ribose sugar, similar to Adenosine triphosphate, however, both are separated by
cytosine.
Classified as a high-energy molecule, it main role is one of energy coupler. However, it can
do this in a much smaller subset of metabolic reactions. Cytidine Disodium triphosphate is a
coenzyme in metabolic reactions, that comprise the synthesis of glycerophospholipids and
proteins glycosylation. Cytidine Disodium triphosphate actions also inhibit enzymes
aspartate carbamoyltransferase, in pyrimidine biosynthesis.
Cytidine Disodium triphosphate prevents the action of aspartate carbamoyltransferase. This
enzyme participates in pyrimidine biosynthesis. Similar to another drug of the same class,
Adenosine Triphosphate, Cytidine Disodium triphosphate main role is to serves of high-
energy molecule. CTP naturally occurs in animal organs and tissues like the liver and brain.
CT's current assignee is a Chinese firm. However, Sigma Aldrich and several other firms in
the western hemisphere manufactures it.
Dosage and administration
It is available in its ingredient form in varying purities, qualities, and methods of preparation
around the world. Since this is an ingredient, there is no dose as it is not consumed directly.
The cost of Cytidine Disodium triphosphate
In the Western market, the buyers of this API, have to pay USD490 for 1 gram of this
ingredient. The cost of this ingredient is also similar to USD447.
How does Cytidine Disodium triphosphate work?
Cytidine Disodium triphosphate blocks aspartate carbamoyltransferase. This enzyme
participates in pyrimidine biosynthesis. Even though it is a high-energy molecule, it is involved
in a very small subset of metabolic reactions. CTP is a coenzyme involved in
glycerophospholipid biosynthesis and protein glycosylation.
