deoxyuridine

dUTP trisodium (Deoxyuridine triphosphate) is a deoxyuridine phosphate having a triphosphate group at the 5'-position and can be used for PCR.

2'-Deoxyuridine (2-deoxyuridine). An antimetabolite that is converted to deoxyuridine triphosphate during DNA synthesis. Laboratory suppression of deoxyuridine is used to diagnose megaloblastic anemias due to vitamin B12 and folate deficiencies.

2'-Deoxyuridine 5'-monophosphate disodium (2'-dUMP⋅2Na) salt is utilized by the enzyme thymidylate synthetase (TS) for the de novo synthesis of dTMP and serves as the reference substrate in studies of dUMP analogues for potential chemotherapy applications.
