General description

2′-Deoxycytidine 5′-triphosphate (dCTP) is a cytidine analog. It is composed of a nucleobase attached to deoxyribose and a 5′-hydroxyl on the sugar bound to a chain of three phosphate residues. dCTP is utilized by cells for DNA polymerase catalyzed synthesis of DNA.

Application

2′-Deoxycytidine 5′-triphosphate disodium salt has been used:
  • in reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT -PCR).
  • to study the mutations in HBB gene via amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS)-PCR
  • to C-tail the end-repaired DNA
2′-Deoxycytidine 5′-triphosphate disodium salt is one of the nucleoside triphosphates used for DNA polymerase driven reactions such as polymerase chain reaction, DNA sequencing and other molecular biology methods.

We document the preparation and properties of dimerized pentaphosphate-bridged deoxynucleotides (dicaptides) that contain reactive components of two different nucleotides simultaneously. Importantly, dicaptides are found to be considerably more stable to hydrolysis than standard dNTPs. Steady-state kinetics studies show that the
