N1-Methylpseudouridine-5'-triphosphate tetrasodium salt is a compound used in RNA research and biotechnology. It is derived from pseudouridine, a naturally occurring nucleoside found in RNA. The addition of a methyl group at the N1 position of pseudouridine modifies its structure and properties. This compound is in the form of a tetrasodium salt, enhancing its solubility in aqueous solutions. It is commonly employed in studies investigating RNA structure, function, and RNA-based therapies.
