N3-CMC
N3-CMC is a click chemistry reagent. N3-CMC containing an azide group can undergo ring strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups. N3-CMC can also undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing alkyne groups. N3-CMC reacts specifically with the pseudouridine (Ψ)-containing RNA, and biotin is subsequently conjugated to the N3-CMC-Ψ RNA via click chemistry, quantitatively analyzing the dynamic changes of Ψ.

Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
Click chemistry is used to describe the selective, modular, wide range and high-yield chemical reactions that allow rapid synthesis of new compounds through heteroatom linking (C-X-C). Bertozzi developed click chemistry in a new dimension—Bioorthogonal chemistry. It is defined as a rapid and selective reaction that does not interfere with biological processes under physiological conditions. Common reaction structures of click chemistry, such as Azide, Alkyne, DBCO, BCN, TCO and Tetrazine.

EdU Incorporation Assay (Click Chemistry-Based DNA Synthesis Measurement)
The EdU incorporation assay measures DNA synthesis by adding the thymidine analog 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine to cells or tissues, where it is incorporated into newly synthesized DNA during S phase. Incorporated EdU is detected by copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition, in which a fluorescent azide covalently reacts with the ethynyl group on EdU, allowing S-phase cells to be detected by fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, or high-content imaging. EdU detection does not require DNA denaturation or anti-BrdU antibody access, which preserves sample structure and improves compatibility with immunostaining and multiparameter cytometry compared with BrdU-based detection. EdU can be cytotoxic in a cell-type- and exposure-dependent manner, so pulse duration, concentration, and continuous-labeling designs should be validated for each cell type.
