Compound Overview
M7G (3'-OMe-5') pppA (2'-OMe) is a modified cap analog that enhances mRNA stability and translation efficiency by maintaining the correct orientation of the mRNA cap and promoting cap-dependent translation initiation, while mimicking the Cap-1 structure to reduce immunogenicity. It can be used in molecular biology research, vaccine development, and gene therapy applications[1]. It has the molecular formula C23H33N10O17P3 (MW 814.49).
