5-Aminoallyl-dUTP (5-[3-aminoallyl]-2'-deoxyuridine-5'-triphosphate) is supplied as a 10 mM solution in TE buffer. 5-Aminoallyl-dUTP can be enzymatically incorporated into DNA with Reverse Transcriptases, Taq DNA polymerase, phi29 DNA Polymerase, Klenow Fragment, Klenow Fragment, exo- and DNA Polymerase I. The resulting amine-containing DNA can be subsequently labeled with any amine-reactive fluorescent dye, biotin or hapten. This two-step method for labeling nucleic acids is considerably more economical than the one-step method using a prelabeled dUTP.
Key Features
• Bright signals with low background.
• Wide variety of fluorophores.
• Great for many applications, like Fluorescence in situ Hybridization, TUNEL and more.
Applications
Enzymatic indirect non-radioactive labeling of DNA during cDNA synthesis, PCR, nick-translation, random-primed labeling, or primer extension.
