Uses
(2′S)-2′-Deoxy-2′-fluoro-5-ethynyluridine is a commonly used probe for DNA synthesis in vivo as it exhibits minimal impact on genome function in diverse tissue types. (2′S)-2′-deoxy-2′-fluoro-5-ethynyluridine is also ideally suited for metabolic DNA labeling when prolonged cell survival and undisturbed cell cycle progression are necessary, such as for pulse-chase experiments aimed at “birth dating” DNA in vivo.
Uses
A probe for DNA synthesis in vivo that is less toxic than both EdU and BrdU. Ideally suited for metabolic DNA labeling when prolonged cell survival and undisturbed cell cycle progression are required.
