5-Ethynyl-2-deoxycytidine (5-EdC) is a cytidine analog that incorporates into newly synthesized DNA and can be fluorescently labeled via click chemistry
Molecular Weight: 251.24 g/mol
Purity: 95% (HPLC)
Form: Solid
CAS Number: [69075-47-4]
Formula: C11H13N3O4
Application Notes: EdC is an effective tool for tracking DNA replication and repair. Compared to the widely used thymidine analog EdU, 5-EdC exhibits significantly lower cytotoxicity, causes less disruption to nucleotide metabolism, and is compatible with studies of DNA methylation and epigenetic dynamics. These properties make 5-EdC a superior choice for long-term or sensitive labeling of proliferating cells.
