Membrane-permeant, metabolically activatable prodrug form of the potential further second messenger
cyclic CMP (Cat. No. C 001). After permeation and metabolic activation by esterases the polar cCMP is released which is trapped inside the cell and subsequently metabolized quickly, resulting in a pulse-type signal. Detailed technical information available. Reference: Beckert et al.,
