EdU (5-ethynyl-2’-deoxyuridine) is a nucleoside, an analog of thymidine, carrying an ethynyl group. This nucleoside behaves as a substrate for cellular DNA replication machinery. After EdU incorporation, DNA containing ethynyl groups can be ligated by click chemistry reaction with various dye azides. Fluorescent DNA can be detected with microscopy, or cells can be sorted with FACS.

AF 343 (Coumarin)-X-azide

AF 343 (Coumarin) is a blue emitting fluorophore that can serve as a FRET donor for fluorescein (FAM). This azide derivative can be conjugated with alkynes by сlick chemistry. An extended linker arm between the fluorophore and the azide group enhances solubility and provides spatial separation between the dye and the biomolecule.

ROX azide, 5-isomer

Azide derivative of ROX (Rhodamine X, Rhodamine 101) dye for biomolecule labeling via click chemistry. Pure 5-isomer.
