Usage

General Description

2',3'-Dideoxycytidine 5'-triphosphate lithium salt is a nucleoside triphosphate analog that acts as a chain terminator during DNA replication. It is used in the laboratory as a substrate for DNA polymerase during DNA sequencing reactions, particularly in Sanger sequencing. The lithium salt form of the compound allows for increased stability and solubility in solution. The dideoxynucleotides lack a 3'-hydroxyl group, preventing the addition of further nucleotides by DNA polymerase, resulting in the termination of DNA synthesis at that specific point. This chemical is important for the development of nucleic acid sequencing technologies and various molecular biology applications.
