We describe the synthesis and properties of five dinucleotide fluorescent cap analogues labelled in the ribose of the 7-methylguanosine moiety with either anthraniloyl (Ant) or N-methylanthraniloyl (Mant) which have been designed for the preparation of fluorescent mRNAs transcription a triphosphate linkage m7GpppGpNp(Np)n1 2 The unusual chemical structure of the cap is pivotal for essentially all… Continue reading We describe the synthesis and properties of five dinucleotide fluorescent cap
