Product Summary for Bromodeoxyuridine/BrdU Antibody (BRD494) [DyLight 650]

Immunogen

Bromodeoxyuridine/BrdU conjugated to KLH

Localization

Nuclear

Specificity

It reacts with Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) in single stranded DNA (produced by partial denaturation of double stranded DNA), BrdU coupled to a protein carrier, as well as free BrdU. BrdU is a thymidine analog, incorporated into cell nuclei during DNA synthesis prior to mitosis. Antibody to BrdU is helpful in detecting S-phase cells, providing useful information on the aggressiveness of tumors.

Background: Bromodeoxyuridine/BrdU

Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) is a synthetic nucleoside analogue of thymidine which can be incorporated into DNA in proliferating cells. During mitosis, BrdU may be incorporated into the newly synthezised DNA of S-phase cells, and can therefore provide an estimate for the fraction of cells in S-phase. Labeling cells with BrdU and then screening with BrdU antibodies has become a powerful tool to study the cytokinetics of normal and neoplastic cells. In vivo, BrdU is considered a potential carcinogen, as its incorporation into DNA may cause mutations.
