Pseudocytidine is a synthetic nucleoside . It consists of the sugar β- D- ribofuranose and the nucleic base cytosine and is an isomer of cytidine . Other isomers are isocytidine and pseudoisocytidine .

properties

Chemically, it is a C- glycoside , in which the β- D - ribose is linked to the C ⁵ -atom of the base cytosine. In contrast, in cytidine , the ribose is linked to an N atom. A similar link between ribose and base can be found in pseudouridine .
