Application 2′-Deoxycytidine 5′-triphosphate (dCTP) is used to synthesize DNA via various DNA polymerases or reverse transcriptases. dCTP is used in studies of nucleotide pools, nucleotide selectivity and enzyme specificity studies, such as the preferred incorporation of dCTP by Rev1, a γ-family DNA polymerase. 2′-Deoxycytidine 5′-triphosphate disodium salt is one of the nucleoside triphosphates used for DNA polymerase driven reactions such as polymerase chain reaction, DNA sequencing and other molecular biology methods. |
