General Description

dCTP, PCR Grade, is a 100 mM clear colorless solution of the sodium salt (pH 8.3). PCR Grade nucleotides from Roche are specially manufactured and purified to the highest possible chemical purity. PCR Grade nucleotides contain at least 99% of the relevant deoxynucleoside-triphosphate (dNTP) and less than 0.9% deoxynucleoside-diphosphate (dNDP).

Biochem/physiol Actions

2′-Deoxycytidine 5′-triphosphate (dCTP) is used to synthesize DNA by DNA polymerases or reverse transcriptases. dCTP is an allosteric regulator of deoxycytidylate (dCMP) deaminase. It 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.
