Human Endogenous Metabolite

[In Vitro]

7-Methylguanosine 5'-diphosphate sodium inhibits binding of eukaryotic initiation factors to reovirus capped mRNA and complex formation involving uncapped mRNA or 18 S rRNA[1]. T. brucei mRNA decapping enzyme (TbDcp2) that cleaves 7-Methylguanosine 5'-diphosphate sodium from capped RNA to generate pRNA, a substrate for TbCe1[2].
