FITC-11-dUTP
Â
Introduction
FITC-11-dUTP is a modified triphosphate that can be linked to the 3 '-OH terminal of DNA by terminal transferase. This triphosphate is linked between fluorescein and the nitrogenous base by an 11-atom chain, which effectively prevents static quenching of fluorescence and improves the efficiency of nucleotide binding to the 3 '-OH terminal of DNA.

Detection Principle
Chromosome DNA breakage is an important marker event in cell apoptosis. A series of DNA 3 '-OH terminus is produced by DNA double-strand breaks in apoptotic cells or whenever there is a gap in one strand. The fluorescein labeled dUTP can be linked to the 3' -OH terminus of the broken DNA under the action of Terminal Deoxynucleotidyl Transferase (TdT). Fluorescence of dUTP conjugate can be detected by flow cytometry or fluorescence microscope.
