Cyanine 5 Phosphoramidite
 

Catalog Number: 10-5915-xx

Description: Cyanine 5 Phosphoramidite

1-[3-(4-monomethoxytrityloxy)propyl]-1'-[3-[(2-cyanoethyl)-(N,N-diisopropyl
phosphoramidityl]propyl]-3,3,3',3'-tetramethylindodicarbocyanine chloride
Formula: C60H72N4O4PCl M.W.: 979.68 F.W.: 533.63
Diluent: Anhydrous Acetonitrile
Coupling: 3 minute coupling time recommended. The use of UltraMILD monomers are preferred. (Catalog Numbers: dA: 10-1601-xx, dC: 10-1015-xx, dG: 10-1621-xx, dT: 10-1030-xx). To avoid any exchange of the iPr-Pac group on the dG with acetyl, use the UltraMild Cap Mix A (40-4210-xx/ 40-4212-xx). 0.02M Iodine for oxidation is recommended.
Deprotection: If UltraMILD reagents were used, deprotect in 0.05M Potassium Carbonate in Methanol for 4 hours at Room Temperature OR for 2 hours at Room Temperature in 30% Ammonium Hydroxide. If standard bases were used, deprotection in Ammonium Hydroxide at Room Temperature for 24-36 hours will give acceptable yields. However, the oligonucleotide will require a reverse phase purification, e.g., Poly Pak. Technical Bulletin
Storage: Freezer storage, -10 to -30°C, dry
Stability in Solution: 24 hours

CYANINE LABELLING

Two cyanine derivatives, Cyanine 3 and Cyanine 5, which differ in structure simply by the number of carbons in the conjugated poly-ene linkage, are joined by the closely related analogues, Cyanine 3.5 and Cyanine 5.5, and are available as phosphoramidites. Cyanine dyes are normally added once at the 5’-terminus and the MMT group should be removed on the synthesizer. The absorbance of the MMT cation (yellow) is noticeably different from the DMT cation (orange), and so, absorbance-based trityl monitors will detect it incorrectly as a low coupling. On the other hand, conductivity detectors will interpret the release more correctly. Cyanine dyes have also been used successfully adjacent to the 3’-terminus as long as 0.02M iodine oxidizer is used during the remainder of the synthesis.

Deprotection of oligos containing Cyanine dyes may be carried out with ammonium hydroxide at room temperature, regardless of the base protecting groups on the monomers used. If there is a need to use ammonium hydroxide at elevated temperature, Cyanine 3 and Cyanine 3.5 are more stable than Cyanine 5 and Cyanine 5.5. However, it is always prudent to use monomers with base labile protecting groups to limit the exposure time to 2 hours or less at 55°C.

Frequently Asked Technical Question

QUESTION: What are the relative extinction coefficients of 5'-Fluorescein, Hex and Tet etc.. at 260 nm and their Lambda max?

RESPONSE:Please see http://www.glenresearch.com/Technical/Extinctions.html

QUESTION: What are the relative extinction coefficients of various dyes?

RESPONSE:Please see http://www.glenres.com/Technical/Extinctions.html#dyes

QUESTION: Does AMA or methylamine cause any degradation to fluorescein or fluorescein-type dyes such as FAM or FITC?

RESPONSE:Response: While AMA (Ammonium hydroxide/40% Methylamine 1:1 v/v) is considered compatible with fluorescein, the use of methylamine when deprotecting a Fluorescein-labeled oligo does lead to a small amount of degradation, which is characterized by a the appearance of a late-eluting peak by RP HPLC that shows no visible fluorescein absorbance. With standard deprotection conditions (AMA 10 minutes at 65 C) the amount of degradation is approximately 5%. The impurity is not detected with AMA at RT for 2 hours.
