2′-Deoxyguanosine 5′-triphosphate sodium salt hydrate has been used:
as a component in a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) mixture for PCR product formation using AM-toxin primers[1]
as an internal standard to improve the analytical performance of capillary electrophoresis (CE) analysis for the evaluation of the cleanup process[2]
as a putative substrate in in vitro enzyme activity assay to incubate with nudix hydrolase 15 (NUDT15) protein for the evaluation of putative NUDT15 inhibitors[3]

Deoxyguanosine 5′-triphosphate (dGTP), a purine deoxynucleotide, is a substrate of DNA polymerase(s) and reverse transcriptases. dGTP is useful to study the distribution, specificity, and kinetics of various nucleoside-triphosphatases (NTPase) and ribonucleotide reductases.
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an insect borne virus (genus: Alphavirus) which causes acute febrile illness in humans followed by a prolonged arthralgic disease that affects the joints of the extremities. Re-emergence of the virus in the form of outbreaks in

During DNA synthesis, DNA polymerases must select against ribonucleotides, present at much higher levels compared with deoxyribonucleotides. Most DNA polymerases are equipped to exclude ribonucleotides from their active site through a bulky side chain residue that can sterically block the
A novel approach for quantitation of DNA (oligonucleotides) with an unprecedented accuracy of approximately 1% is reported. Quantitation of DNA is commonly performed by measuring UV absorption or fluorescence from dyes intercalated into DNA. Both methods need accurate quantitation standards

Ganciclovir (GCV) is the first-line therapy against human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), a widespread infection that is particularly dangerous for immunodeficient individuals. Closely resembling deoxyguanosine triphosphate, the tri-phosphorylated metabolite of GCV (GCV-TP) is preferentially incorporated by the viral DNA polymerase, thereby terminating

Human ribonucleotide reductases (hRNRs) catalyze the conversion of nucleotides to deoxynucleotides and are composed of α- and β-subunits that form active α(n)β(m) (n, m = 2 or 6) complexes. α binds NDP substrates (CDP, UDP, ADP, and GDP, C site)
