Application

Aminoallyl-dUTP may be used for indirect stable labeling of first-strand cDNA synthesis via polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Aminoallyl-dUTP functions as a reactive site for subsequent labeling by reactive fluorescent probes. Aminoallyl-dUTP may also be useful in the construction of reactive DNA scaffolds.
Aminoallyl-dUTP sodium salt has been used:
  • to add to the deoxynucleoside triphosphate mix for complementary DNA (cDNA) synthesis
  • for the generation of chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) probes
  • in the reverse transcription of RNA for the synthesis of fluorescent labelled probes

Biochem/physiol Actions

Aminoallyl-dUTP sodium salt/5-(3-aminoallyl)-2′-deoxyuridine 5′-triphosphate (aa-dUTP) have been used mainly in two-step labeling approach for the synthesis of nucleic acid hybridisation probe.

Fluorescent nucleic acid hybridization probes traditionally have been generated by enzymatic incorporation of dye-labeled nucleotides, even though incorporation efficiency is low and variable from dye to dye. Alternatively, 5-(3-aminoallyl)-2'-deoxyuridine 5'-triphosphate (aa-dUTP) is enzymatically incorporated to generate amine-modified DNA, which is
