Amino-11-CTP (Amino-11-cytidine-5′-triphosphate) is a modified nucleotide used for labeling RNA in molecular biology. It has an amino group attached to cytidine via an 11-atom linker, which makes it easy to attach labels like fluorescent dyes or biotin.
Key Features:
- Amine Group: The amino group allows quick attachment of detection labels.
- Spacer Arm: The 11-atom linker keeps the label away from the nucleotide, reducing interference.
Amino-11-CTP Applications:
- Incorporates easily into RNA during transcription.
- Great for labeling RNA with biotin, fluorescent dyes, or other tags.
- Perfect for RNA hybridization and detection assays.
Typical Usage:
- RNA Labeling: Amino-11-CTP adds labels to RNA for clear detection in experiments.
- Conjugation: The amino group lets you quickly attach labels like biotin or dyes.
