Thermo Scientific™ EZ-Link™ Psoralen-PEG3-Biotin
Description
Thermo Scientific™ EZ-Link Psoralen-PEG3-Biotin enables biotinylation of DNA or RNA via UV-light-activated intercalation of the psoralen group with thymine- and other pyrimidine-containing bases to form covalent bonds.
Highlights:
- Water-soluble, polyethylene glycol (PEG) spacer arm
- Much higher coupling yield than achieved with photoactivatable biotin
- Psoralen moiety reacts through a cyclo-addition mechanism with the 5,6 double bond in thymine- and other pyrimidine-containing bases
- Covalent attachment occurs with exposure to UV light (approximately equal to 350nm)
- Great for biotinylating DNA/RNA probes (∽1 biotin/10-20 bases)
- Ultrahigh sensitivity relative to radiolabeled probes (<100 femtograms)
- Does not interfere with hybridization
