Identification
Name:Deoxycytidine 5'-triphosphate
DescriptionDeoxycytidine triphosphate (dCTP) is a cytidine nucleotide triphosphate that is used whenever DNA is synthesized by DNA polymerase. During DNA synthesis dCTP has the PPi (pyrophosphate) cleaved off and the dCMP is incorporated into the DNA strand at the 3' end.
