Usage

Description

Riboflavin 5''-monophosphate (FMN) is a coenzyme that is tightly bound to enzymes catalyzing oxidation and reduction reactions in a variety of biosynthetic pathways. FMN also binds the FMN riboswitch (RFN element) on RNA to alter gene regulation. FMN is a substrate of FMN phosphohydrolases and is used to study their function.

Chemical Properties

Yellowish crystalline powder

Uses

Different sources of media describe the Uses of 6184-17-4 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Riboflavin 5′-monophosphate (FMN) is used as a prosthetic group by oxidoreductase (one and two electron transfer) enzymes such as NADH dehydrogenases, nitric oxide synthases, and nitrilotriacetate monooxygenases. Riboflavin 5′-monophosphate is used as a substrate to study the specificity and kinetics of FMN phosphohydrolases. FMN is used to study molecular sensing based gene regulation by riboswitches.
2. Riboflavin 5''-(Dihydrogen Phosphate) Monosodium Salt Dihydrate is a phosphated nutritional factor found in milk, eggs, malted barley, liver, kidney, heart, leafy vegetables. Richest natural source is yeast. Minute amounts present in all plant and animal cells. Vitamin (enzyme cofactor).

General Description

Riboflavin 5′-monophosphate (FMN) is highly soluble in water. Flavins are considered as blue-light absorbing dyes.

Biochem/physiol Actions
