The chemical synthesis of 5-amino-1-(2′-deoxy-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamide, referred to as dZ, and of its 5′-triphosphate derivative (dZTP), from 2′-deoxyinosine is described. The polymerisation of dZTP using terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase to give a homopolymer is also presented.
