RxNorm 8553

Concept Hierarchy & Relationship Mapping

RxNorm Concept Unique Identifier (RxCUI) 8553 represents a standardized clinical drug concept used for cross-system interoperability. This concept aggregates multiple Atom IDs (AUIs), which are specific naming variations and synonyms used across pharmaceutical databases to ensure accurate medication mapping for: RNA ligase.

The following semantic concepts and normalized strings are associated with this clinical entity:

SY
Polyribonucleotide synthase (adenosine triphosphate)
AUI:5940232
FN
Polyribonucleotide synthase (adenosine triphosphate) (substance)
AUI:5940233
PT
Polyribonucleotide synthase (ATP)
AUI:274606
SY
RNA ligase
AUI:274603

This clinical crossover tool is designed for healthcare professionals, pharmacists, and data analysts to safely compare substitute products and manage medication interoperability.
