Cy5 phosphoramidite

1-[3-(4-monomethoxytrityloxy)propyl]-1'-[3-[(2-cyanoethyl)-(N,N-diisopropylphosphoramidityl]propyl]-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindodicarbocyanine chloride



Catalogue number: 303-73

Diluent: Anhydrous Acetonitrile

Coupling: 3 minute coupling time recommended. Monomers and Cap A Mix that allow for UltraMILD deprotection are preferred. Use 0.02M iodine to avoid degradation of the cyanine dye.

Deprotection: If UltraMILD reagents were used, deprotect at room temperature in 0.05M Potassium Carbonate in Methanol for 4 hrs or Ammonium Hydroxide for 2 hrs. If standard bases were used, deprotection in Ammonium Hydroxide at room temperature for 24-36 hrs will give acceptable yields.

Storage: Freezer storage, -10 to -30°C, dry.

Stability in Solution: 1-2 days, <70% efficient after 2 days

Store labeled oligo in the dark, either dry or in a neutral aqueous media at -20°C. Do not store crude fluorescently labeled oligonucleotides in ammonia.
