General description

5-Bromo-2′-deoxyuridine 5′-triphosphate is used for incorporation into DNA for studying normal and tumor cell proliferation profiles.

Application

5-Bromo-2′-deoxyuridine 5′-triphosphate (5-BrdUTP) may be used as a labeling TdT substrate for terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT) reactions or for DNA synthesis. BrdUTP is also used as an effective mutagenic agent. 5-BrdUTP labeling may be detected by immunological techniques or 5-BrdUTP may be derivitized by biotinylation or other methods for detection by fluorogenic or chromogenic methods.
5-Bromo-2′-deoxyuridine 5′-triphosphate sodium salt has been used:
  • in the labelling of 3′-OH termini of fragmented DNA with double stranded breaks in african green monkey kidney cells
  • to label cleaved DNA ends in apoptosis assay in avian tissue sections
  • for incorporation into mice prostates for immunohistochemistry studies

To explore the mutagenic properties of the nucleotide analogue bromodeoxyuridine triphosphate (BrdUTP), the wild type alpha-amylase (xamy) gene from Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris 8004 was used as a mutational target. It was mutated using PCR techniques to partially replace deoxythymidine
