Product Information

• Name: Triethylenephosphoramide
• Synonyms: 1,1',1''-PhosphinylidynetrisaziridineTris(1-aziridinyl)phosphine oxideAPO
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Triethylenephosphoramide (TEP) is a model system for studying the reaction mechanism of the enzyme phosphotriesterase. TEP has been used in reactions with water vapor, which causes the release of hydrogen chloride. The reaction solution is analyzed by mass spectrometry to determine the reaction products. TEP has also been shown to inhibit nitrite ion-dependent enzymes such as nitrate reductase and aminopeptidase N. TEP reacts with fluorescence probes that have been modified with response elements to detect the binding of these probes to DNA and RNA. This helps researchers identify the location of TEP in proteins and nucleic acids.
