    Product Description

    Riboflavin 5'-monophosphate (FMN) is a coenzyme that is tightly bound to enzymes catalyzing oxidation and reduction reactions in a variety of biosynthetic pathways.1,2 FMN also binds the FMN riboswitch (RFN element) on RNA to alter gene regulation.3,4 FMN is a substrate of FMN phosphohydrolases and is used to study their function.5

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
