Enzymatic synthesis of biotin-labeled polynucleotides: novel nucleic acid affinity probes.
Open accessAbstract
Analogs of dUTP and UTP that contain a biotin molecule covalently bound to the C-5 position of the pyrimidine ring through an allylamine linker arm have been synthesized. These biotin-labeled nucleotides are efficient substrates for a variety of DNA and RNA polymerases in vitro. Polynucleotides containing low levels of biotin substitution (50 molecules or fewer per kilobase) have denaturation, reassociation, and hybridization characteristics similar to those of unsubstituted controls. Biotin-labeled polynucleotides, both single and double-stranded, are selectively and quantitatively retained on avidin-Sepharose, even after extensive washing with 8 M urea, 6 M guanidine hydrochloride, or 99% formamide. In addition, biotin-labeled polynucleotides can be selectively immunoprecipitated in the presence of antibiotin antibody and Staphylococcus aureus protein A. The unique features of biotin-labeled polynucleotides suggest that they will be useful affinity probes for the detection and isolation of specific DNA and RNA sequences.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
