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 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

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.

Extensive DNA fragmentation that generates a multitude of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) is a hallmark of apoptosis. A widely used approach to identify apoptotic cells relies on labeling DSBs in situ with fluorochromes. Flow or image cytometry is then used
