5-Aza-dCTP (5-Aza-2'-deoxycytidine-5′-triphosphate) is a nucleotide analog that acts as a substrate for mammalian DNA polymerase α (Km = 3.0 μM) and a weak competitive inhibitor of this enzyme (Ki = 4.3 μM). 5-Aza-dCTP inhibits DNA polymerase α via incorporation into DNA through Watson-Crick base pairing, inhibits DNA methyltransferases via incorporation into hemimethylated DNA, and induces mutations in HIV-1 via incorporation into viral DNA during synthesis. 5-Aza-dCTP reverses the inhibitory effect of dTTP on dCMP deaminase, and allosterically activates dCMP deamination to the same extent as dCTP. 5-Aza-dCTP is applicable to research related to leukemia and type 1 human immunodeficiency virus infection .
