5-Fluoroorotic acid monohydrate (5-FOA)

5-Fluoroorotic acid monohydrate (5-FOA)5 Fluoroorotic Acid (5 FOA) is widely used in the field of yeast molecular genetics. The toxicity of 5 FOA to yeast cells with a functioning URA3 gene which encodes orotidine 5 P decarboxylase (OMP decarboxylase), makes it especially useful for the selection and identification of mutant yeast strains. 5 FOA is most often applied with Saccharomyces cerevisiae (URA3), although it has been used in other strains including Schizosaccharomyces pombe (URA4

Essential for the replication of pGreen transformations in Agrobacterium

it limits the availability of essential cofactors required for nucleotide biosynthesis

PNP-α-L-Fuc

It induces miscoding of mRNA and leads to inhibition of protein synthesis

Storage/Handling: Store desiccated at 4°C
