118578-37-3 Usage
Uses
Different sources of media describe the Uses of 118578-37-3 differently. You can refer to the following data:
1. Poly(deoxyinosinic-deoxycytidylic) acid (Poly(dI-dC) ? Poly(dI-dC)) is an alternating copolymer used as a DNA substrate for evaluation of DNA methytransfeases, such as DNA-methyltransferase 1 and as double-stranded DNA model for conformational studies of DNA structure dynamics and drug, small molecule, interactions.
2. Poly(deoxyinosinic-deoxycytidylic) acid sodium salt has been used in a study that synthesized and characterized bis(2-(pyrimidin-2-γl)ethoxy)alkanes and their pharmacological activity. Poly(deoxyinosinic-deoxycytidylic) acid sodium salt has also been used in a study that investigated the growth of calcium carbonate films on LB/LbL matrices.
General Description
Poly (2′-deoxyinosinic-2′-deoxycytidylic acid) sodium salt is an alternating copolymer that acts as a substrate for DNA methyltransferases.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Poly(2′-deoxyinosinic-2′-deoxycytidylic acid), poly(dI-dC) is a synthetic DNA substrate. At high salt, Poly(dI-dC) exists in left handed helical conformation and reverts to right-handed form upon decreasing salt. It is used as a non-specific competitor in electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA).
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 118578-37-3 includes 9 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 6 digits, 1,1,8,5,7 and 8 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 3 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 118578-37:
(8*1)+(7*1)+(6*8)+(5*5)+(4*7)+(3*8)+(2*3)+(1*7)=153
153 % 10 = 3
So 118578-37-3 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
