An extension to our line of hydrophobic modifiers, based on Vitamin E. This is used to introduce tocopherol at the 5'-end of the oligo, either directly on the 5'-OH of the final base or in conjunction with a spacer or linker such as spacer 18 or C6 S-S thiol. The latter will enable the tocopherol to be cleaved via the disulphide bridge, for example once the oligo has been delivered to the cell. To include a C8 spacer natively use 5'-Octyl-tocopherol.
