description

Zebularine is a nucleoside analog of cytidine that inhibits DNA methylation and tumor growth. It functions by forming a complex with DNA methyltransferases and stabilizing their binding to DNA. Zebularine also inhibits cytidine deaminase and is reported to induce the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells into cardiomyocytes.
