For other salt forms please inquire. cUMP has been identified in multiple biological systems, but its biological role as a second messenger has long remained unclear. A study by Tal et al. (2021) reveals cUMP and the related cCMP (Cat. No. C 001) as nucleotide second messengers synthesized by specific bacterial pyrimidine cyclases and functioning in bacterial immunity against phages. Detailed technical information available. References: Tal et al., Cell, 184, 5728 - 5739 (2021); Göttle et al., Biochemistry, 49, 5494 - 5503 (2010); Moll et al., J. Neural.
