5-Methyl-2'-deoxycytidine - 5 G

5-Methyl-2'-deoxycytidine is a nucleoside analogue that inhibits the synthesis of DNA. 5-Methyl-2'-deoxycytidine prevents methylation of guanine, which disrupts the binding of guanine nucleotide-binding proteins to the dna template and prevents polymerase chain reactions. 2'-Deoxy-5-methylcytidine is also a methyltransferase inhibitor, which means it blocks the enzyme responsible for adding methyl groups to cytosine molecules.
