Description: Biotin-14-dCTP is enzymatically incorporated into DNA/cDNA as substitute for its natural counterpart dCTP. The resulting Biotin-labeled DNA/cDNA probes are subsequently detected using streptavidin conjugated with horseradish peroxidase (HRP), alkaline phosphatase (AP), a fluorescent dye or agarose/magnetic beads. Optimal substrate properties for Nick Translation are ensured by a 14-atom linker attached to the N4 position of cytosine. For PCR incorporation experiments e.g. with Taq polymerase Biotin-11-dCTP (#NU-809-BIOX) or Biotin-16-dCTP (#NU-809-BIO16) are recommended whose Biotin moiety is attached to C5 position of cytidine via a 11-atom or 16-atom linker, respectively. Recommended Biotin-14-dCTP/dCTP ratio for Nick Translation: 50% Biotin-14-dCTP/ 50% dCTP Please note: The optimal final concentration of Biotin-14-dCTP may very depending on the application and assay conditions. For optimal product yields and high incorporation rates an individual optimization of the Biotin-14-dCTP/dCTP ratio is recommended.
