BIOTIN-11-UTP

Description

Biotin-11-UTP is a substrate for RNA-polymerases SP6, T3, and T7. Biotinylated triphosphate is an analog of natural UTP and can be used for RNA labeling in transcription in vitro.

Biotinylated RNA can be used instead of radioactive-labeled RNA in many applications, including Northern and Southern blots, hybridization in situ, and microarray analysis. Biotinylated RNA is detected using various methods with streptavidin conjugates, and the long linker of 11 atoms allows efficient interaction of biotin with streptavidin.
