DescriptionDeoxycytidine, also known as dC, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as pyrimidine 2'-deoxyribonucleosides. Pyrimidine 2'-deoxyribonucleosides are compounds consisting of a pyrimidine linked to a ribose which lacks a hydroxyl group at position 2. Deoxycytidine is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Deoxycytidine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans.
