Targeted rapid amplification of cDNA ends (T-RACE)-an improved RACE reaction through degradation of non-target sequences [PDF]
Amplification of the 5' ends of cDNA, although simple in theory, can often be difficult to achieve. We describe a novel method for the specific amplification of cDNA ends. An oligo-dT adapter incorporating a dUTP-containing PCR primer primes first-strand

Viruses with U-DNA: New Avenues for Biotechnology
Deoxyuridine in DNA has recently been in the focus of research due to its intriguing roles in several physiological and pathophysiological situations. Although not an orthodox DNA base, uracil may appear in DNA via either cytosine deamination or thymine ...

Detection of Genomic Uracil Patterns
The appearance of uracil in the deoxyuridine moiety of DNA is among the most frequently occurring genomic modifications. Three different routes can result in genomic uracil, two of which do not require specific enzymes: spontaneous cytosine deamination ...

Precluding uracil from DNA [PDF]
Two enzymes, dUTP pyrophosphatase and uracil-DNA glycosylase, prevent the misincorporation of uracil into the genome in distinct manners. The atomic structures of these proteins complexed with substrate analogs reveal the structural basis for uracil ...

Synthesis of Uracil-Iodonium(III) Salts for Practical Utilization as Nucleobase Synthetic Modules
Iodonium(III) salts bearing uracil moieties have recently appeared in the literature, but their structural scope and utilization are limited because of their hygroscopic characteristics.
