Formamido Thymine
Dimer d(PfpT)

d(PfpT): Dinucleotide monophosphate
where Pf is the nucleoside bearing
the 1´-formamido-2´deoxy-ß-D-ribose modification from a pyrimidine
nucleoside.

PRODUCT
CHARACTERISTICS |
|
d(PfpT) is useful as an internal
standard for end-labelling as well as LC-MS analysis in the
investigation of the nature and consequences of DNA damage. d(PfpT)
has been chemically synthesized to improve reliability and
accuracy and purified by HPLC.(1)
This modified monophosphate is derived by oxidation of
pyrimidines. Identification of products and an index of their
purity was accomplished by proton NMR spectroscopy at 400 MHz.(2) |
