Biotin-16-dCTP is a biotinylated deoxycytidine triphosphate that serves as an important DNA labeling substrate. Biotin-16-dCTP can be enzymatically incorporated into the 3 end of DNA probes via terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase, forming a 1-3 nucleotide-long tail to achieve biotinylation of the probes. Biotin-16-dCTP enhances chemiluminescent detection of low-abundance targets such as specific tRNA isoacceptors through Northern blotting. Biotin-16-dCTP can also replace conventional dCTP to be integrated into single-stranded DNA generated by asymmetric polymerase chain reaction, which is applicable for bioconjugation or pull-down assays. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles of Biotin-16-dCTP should be avoided to prevent degradation of its function for probe biotinylation[1][2][3].
