2′-Deoxyguanosine 5′-triphosphate trisodium salt is utilized for methods such as DNA sequencing, PCR and other DNA polymerase based DNA synthesis and repair techniques.
General description
2′-Deoxyguanosine 5′-triphosphate (dGTP) is made of a guanine nucleobase attached to deoxyribose and a 5’;-hydroxyl on the sugar linked to a chain of three phosphate residues. It is used by the cells for the synthesis of DNA with the help of DNA polymerase.
