Biotin-11-UTP

This biotin-labeled analog of uridine triphosphate (UTP) is designed for labeling RNA probes through in vitro transcription using various RNA polymerases. Biotin-labeled RNA probes are widely employed in molecular biology applications, such as in situ hybridization and gene expression microarrays. The biotin tag allows for detection using streptavidin conjugates, leveraging the strong biotin-streptavidin interaction. The number "11" in the compound name indicates the length of the linker arm connecting the UTP molecule to the biotin label. This linker length plays a role in balancing the efficiency of probe labeling and the accessibility of the biotin for detection. Chemical Properties Storage Upon receipt, store at -20°C in the dark.
