Thermo Fisher Scientific offers non-standard, structural phosphoramidites for synthesis of modified oligonucleotides. Oligos with these modifications can then be used as primers, probes, or in structural studies.
Stability and melting point of oligo duplexes can be altered by incorporation of N4-Ethyl dC, 5-Me dC, dI, or dU into the sequence, while mutagenic effects from methylation of an exocyclic amine can be studied by the incorporation of N6-Me-dA. Similar studies may be performed utilizing 8-oxo-dG, which mimics an oxidized guanine.
Structural phosphoramidites can be custom manufactured with base or sugar (2′, 3′ or 5′ positions) modifications.

Modified Phosphoramidites - 5-Me-dC, dI, and dU
Thermo Scientific modified nucleoside 5-Me dC, dI, and dU phosphoramidites are used in specialty applications requiring high quality and performance. The unique deoxy-Inosine (dI) phosphoramidite structure facilitates pairing with all four bases, and is often utilized as a degenerate base for oligo probes/primers.
