Abstract
We describe the use of 3'-modified thymidine nucleotides as potent cha in terminators in Sanger's DNA sequencing reactions by application of T7 DNA polymerase and Mn2+-ions. These nucleotides contain fluorescein which is linked directly or by mono-, di- and tetraglycine units to t he 3'-position of a 3'-amino-2'-3'dideoxyribose.
