1. A method for analyzing a DNA sequence comprising the steps ofa) providing a nucleic acid template with a primer hybridized to said template forming a primer/template hybridization complex,b) adding DNA polymerase, and at least one labeled deoxynucleoside tri- or tetraphosphate comprising a 3′
- -nitrate and a detectable label covalently bound to the oxygen atom of an oxymethyl or oxyallyl or oxypropargyl substitution of a nucleobase, and a pyrophosphatase,c) subjecting said reaction mixture to conditions which enable a DNA polymerase catalyzed primer extension reaction,d) determining, whether said compound has been incorporated into said primer/template hybridization complex,e) simultaneously removing the 3′
-nitrate group and optionally said label from said complex by means of adding a sulfide or a mercaptane, andf) repeating steps b) to e) at least once.

Abstract
The present invention provides deoxynucleoside tri- or tetraphosphate comprising a 3′ nitrate and a detectable label covalently bound to the oxygen atom of an oxymethyl or oxyallyl or oxypropargyl substitution of a nucleobase. Such compounds provide new possibilities for future Sequencing by Synthesis technologies.
