Amino-11-CTP
This product is a high-purity cytidine triphosphate derivative modified with an aminohexyl linker at the C5 position, extended by an 11-atom spacer for especially versatile conjugation. It retains the triphosphate group for enzymatic incorporation into RNA.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Cytidine Triphosphate Core – Functions as a natural substrate for RNA polymerases.
-
Aminohexyl Spacer (11 atoms) – Provides a reactive primary amine for coupling with NHS esters, carboxyls, and activated carbonates.
-
Extended Linker – Enhances accessibility of the amino group for downstream labeling.
-
High Purity – Suitable for enzymatic reactions, labeling, and assay development.
Applications
-
Incorporation into RNA by in vitro transcription.
-
Site-specific labeling of RNA with fluorescent dyes or affinity tags.
-
Probe development for RNA structure and function studies.
-
Bioconjugation for diagnostics and therapeutics.
Storage & Handling
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C, dry, and protected from light.
-
Use: Dissolve in nuclease-free water or buffer. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles.
