This phosphoramidite allows fluorescein (FAM) to be introduced into any position in the oligonucleotide sequence during synthesis by the phosphoramidite method (in the middle of the chain, at the 5’- and 3’-terminus). The reagent is a conjugate of deoxythymidine phosphoramidite and 6-isomer of FAM. Modification is performed during oligonucleotide synthesis by substituting standard dT phosphoramidite with fluorescein-dT phosphoramidite. This modification does not affect exonuclease or polymerase activity.

For modification with fluorescein at the 5’-terminus use FAM phosphoramidite, 6-isomer.

Usage

Coupling: 10 minutes

Deprotection: standard conditions using ammonium hydroxide; deprotection time depends on oligonucleotide composition and nucleobase protecting groups (deprotection for 17 h at 55 °С removes all protecting groups from standard nucleobases). AMA (solution of 30% ammonium hydroxide/40% aqueous methylamine 1:1 v/v) can be used with ~5% of non-fluorescent side product forming. To avoid formation of the side product, start deprotection with ammonium hydroxide (30 min at room temperature), then add an equal volume of 40% aqueous methylamine and continue deprotection as required with AMA (e.g. 10 min at 65 °C).
