Description

Quasar®570 and Quasar®670 dyes are two cyanine derivatives of Cyanine 3 and Cyanine 5, respectively. These two fluorophores differ in structure simply by the number of carbons in the conjugated polyene linkage. Cyanine dyes are a popular oligonucleotide modification and are commonly used for imaging, flow cytometry, and genomic applications. With Quasar®570-dT and Quasar®670-dT, these dyes can be incorporated internally without disrupting base pairing or stacking. Monomers can be inserted as a replacement for a dT residue.

 

Particularly for Quasar® 670-dT, the use of UltraMILD monomers is preferred. (Catalog Numbers: dA: 10-1601-xx, dC: 10-1015-xx, dG: 10-1621-xx, dT: 10-1030-xx). To avoid any exchange of the iPr-Pac group on the dG with acetyl, use the UltraMILD Cap Mix A (40-4210-xx/40-4212-xx). 0.02M Iodine for oxidation is recommended.

Details

Usage

  • Coupling: 10 minute coupling time recommended. Use 0.02M Iodine to avoid degradation of the cyanine dye.
  • Deprotection: If dmf-dG is used during synthesis, deprotect in Ammonium Hydroxide for 2 hours at 65 °C; with ibu-dG, deprotect for 24-36 hours at room temperature. Note Quasar� 570 is compatible with UltraFast deprotection (AMA 10 minutes at 65 °C) if Ac-dC was used.
