Abstrakt: A modified 2'-deoxycytidine triphosphate derivative (dC TO TP) bearing a thiazole orange moiety tethered via an oligoethylene glycol linker was designed and synthesized. The nucleotide was incorporated into DNA by DNA polymerases in vitro as well as in live cells. Upon incorporation of dC TO TP into DNA, the thiazole orange moiety exhibited a fluorescence lifetime that differed significantly from the non-incorporated (i.e. free and non-covalently intercalated) forms of dC TO TP. When dC TO TP was delivered into live U-2 OS cells using a synthetic nucleoside triphosphate transporter, it allowed us to distinguish and monitor cells that were actively synthesizing DNA in real time, from the very first moments after the treatment. We anticipate that this probe could be used to study chromatin organization and dynamics.
