General description

5- 5-fluoro-2′-deoxyuridylate (FdUMP) is an intracellularly generated metabolite of 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), a widely used reagent in molecular biology to study DNA synthesis and metabolism.

Application

It has been used:

  • as an anti-mitotic agent for culturing mouse primary cortical neurons.
  • as a component of feeding media in the culturing of mouse primary cortical neurons.
  • in studies on the activity and function of thymidylate synthase (TS).

Biochem/physiol Actions

5-Fluoro-2′-deoxyuridine 5′-monophosphate sodium salt (FdUMP) is an DNA synthesis inhibitor. FdUMP along with RNA synthesis inhibitor 3′-C-ethinylcytidine induces cell death in cervical cancer cells at nanomolar concentrations.

Thymidylate synthase (TS) plays a major role in the response to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) by binding directly to the 5-FU metabolite, 5-fluoro-dUMP (FdUMP). The change in the TS expression levels after 5-FU administration was examined in parallel to 5-FU responsiveness in
