Cytidine diphosphate, abbreviatedCDP, is anucleoside diphosphate. It is anester ofpyrophosphoric acid with thenucleosidecytidine. CDP consists of thepyrophosphategroup, thepentosesugarribose, and thenucleobasecytosine.
InBacillus subtilis andStaphylococcus aureus, CDP-activatedglycerol andribitol are necessary to build wallteichoic acid.[1]
InRhodothermus marinus, CDP-activatedinositol is necessary to form thephospholipid dialkylether glycerophosphoinositide, which contains inositolphosphate andether-linkedalkyl chains.[2]
CDP is commonly formed in the reactiondolichol +cytidine triphosphate (CTP) ⟶dolichol-phosphate + CDP, which is prevalent in manybiochemical pathways.[3]
