PAGE gel image of the ethidium
bromide-stained and UV-visualised PCR fragments derived from pUC19
and the C7-amino-modified 7-deaza-dATP analogues 9–11 (Fig. 4) following incubation with XbaI.
Lane 1, molecular weight markers; lane 2, control 98 nt PCR product
containing all four natural triphosphates, dATP, dCTP, dGTP and
dTTP in the absence of XbaI; lane 3, the 98 nt
PCR product containing all four natural triphosphates, dATP, dCTP,
dGTP and dTTP following incubation with XbaI; lane
4, the 98 nt PCR product containing dTTP, dCTP, dGTP and 9 following
incubation with XbaI; lane 5, the 98 nt PCR product containing
dTTP, dCTP, dGTP and 10 following incubation with XbaI; lane 6, the 98 nt PCR product containing
dTTP, dCTP, dGTP and 11 following incubation with XbaI; lane 7, molecular weight markers. Incorporation
of analogues 9–11 into
recognition site for XbaI (T^CTAGA) results in
inhibition of cleavage.
