Abstract

A method for preparing α-32P-labeled deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates ([α-32P]dNTP)* is described. By comparing the labeling procedure to that ofWalseth et al.1,2 the reaction of Nuclease P1 is saved in our experiments and only three steps are needed for a routine preparation, without decreasing the yield of [α-32P]dNTP which is over 92% based on32Pi. In this paper [α-32P]dATP is taken as an example to deseribe the labeling procedure, the suitability of our method has been discussed.
