(5'S)-8,5'-Cyclodeoxyadenosine CEP
Notes: This phosphoramidite is used for standard 3’ to 5’ oligonucleotide synthesis.
Description: 8,5’-Cyclodeoxyadenosine (cyclo-dA) is a naturally occurring
free-radical-induced DNA lesion. This bulky lesion has been shown to be present
in human cells.1 Cyclo-dA is a strong block to
gene expression in both CHO and human cells but can be repaired via
nucleoside excision repair mechanisms, but not by base excision repair
mechanisms.2 Our (5'S)-8,5’-Cyclodeoxyadenosine CEP can be used for
efficient incorporation of cyclo-dA into oligonucleotides.
