General Description

Thymidine 5'-(trisodium hydrogen triphosphate) is a chemical compound commonly known as thymidine triphosphate (dTTP). It is an essential component in the life cycle of a cell as it is one of the four nucleotides needed for the synthesis of DNA. This substance plays a crucial role during the process of DNA replication, where it helps in the formation of new DNA strands. dTTP provides the 'T' base in the DNA structure. Generally, it is formed in the cell via enzymatic phosphorylation of thymidine 5’-diphosphate. The tri-sodium salt in its name refers to its three replaceable hydrogen ions which react with sodium in a chemical reaction.
