Physical & Dilution Data
Dilution volumes (in ml) are for 0.1M solutions for LK2550. Adjust accordingly for other concentrations. For µmol pack sizes, products should be diluted as 100µmol/ml to achieve 0.1M, regardless of molecular weight.

Oligo Synthesis with LK2427 and LK2550
Dissolution
LK2550 - This is sparingly soluble in acetonitrile therefore it is recommended that the amidite is solubilised in anhydrous DCM, AF (7 parts) and once completely dissolved (~10-15min) add anhydrous acetonitrile (3 parts). Do not premix the diluents. 0.1M concentration recommended.
Coupling
LK2550 – A 15min coupling time is recommended. Fast deprotection amidites are recommended.
After synthesis; it is recommended to flush the lines with DCM followed by MeCN to remove the dye immediately after use. This will prevent any precipitation or cross contamination.
LK2427 is used per standard solid supports following the synthesiser instructions. Non-nucleosidic CPG supports do not detritylate as rapidly as nucleosidic ones, therefore an additional detritylation step is recommended. It is therefore necessary to use a cycle that does not contain an initial capping step. Fast deprotection amidites are recommended.
Cleavage & Deprotection
LK2550 -
- If the amidite is added to the 5’-end or the 3’-end on universal support. After synthesis, treat the support bound oligonucleotide with 20% DEA in acetonitrile (LK4028) to remove the cyanoethyl protection from the phosphate linkages. This will prevent any loss of the quencher during deprotection.
- Cleavage and deprotection are achieved in the same step by treating the support bound oligonucleotide with AMA, 10min, 65oC.

Post-Synthetic Labelling with 1378
Solubility
DMF to 5-10mgmL-1 or 7-14µmolmL-1
Post synthetic labelling protocol
- Dissolve the amino functionalised biomolecule in 50mM carbonate buffer (pH 9.3).
- Dissolve the NHS ester in DMF.
- Add the solution from step 2 to the solution from step 1 such that the v:v of 1:2 is 2:1.
- Incubate overnight at 30oC.
- Quench the reaction with Tris-HCl buffer pH 7.2
- The conjugated product is now ready for purification.
