5-Ethynyluridine
5-Ethynyluridine is used to help detect RNA synthesis in cells by its biosynthetic incorporation into newly transcribed RNA. Once fed to cells, it is incorporated during active RNA synthesis and can then be detected using a copper-catalyzed click reaction with fluorescent dyes. The cells can then be analysed by fluorescence imaging, flow cytometry or high content imaging analysis.
