General description
Thymidine is also referred to as pyrimidine deoxynucleoside. Deoxythymidine is a nucleoside present in DNA. In a DNA double stranded structure, thymidine pairs with deoxyadeninosine. It is useful in cell synchronization during S-phase. In the salvage pathway of pyrimidines, pyrimidine phosphorylase reversibly converts thymine to thymidine.
Application
Thymidine has been used:
- as a supplement in HL5-modified medium for cell culture
- to incubate cells in cell-cycle analysis
- in cell synchronization
