Biotin-16-dUTP Application Use biotin-16-dUTP to add a nonradioactive label to DNA, so the DNA can easily and safely be detected (e.g ., with enzyme-conjugated streptavidin). Biotin-16-dUTP can replace dTTP in the following enzymatic procedures: •nick translation (e.g., with E. coli DNA Polymerase I) •random-primed DNA labeling (e.g ., with Klenow Enzyme) •labeling during PCR (e.g., with Taq DNA polymerase) •3´-tailing (with terminal transferase) •cDNA synthesis (e.g., with Transcriptor or M-MuLV reverse transcriptase) Product Description Brief description: Biotin is bound to deoxyuridine triphosphate via an amide linkage. Formula: C32H48N7O18P3SLi4 Molecular weight: Mr = 971.5 (biotin-16-dUTP-Li4) Contents Biotin-16-dUTP, tetralithium salt; 1 mM solution Typical analysis: at least 85% deoxynucleoside triphosphate (Biotin-16-dUTP) (HPLC, area %). |
