Biotin PEG Succinimidyl Glutaramide(Biotin PEG SGA) is a polymer that belongs to the class of polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivatives. This compound contains both biotin and succinimidyl glutaramide functional groups, making it a useful tool in the field of pharmaceutical research and development.
The biotin functional group is a vitamin that is essential for various biochemical processes in the body. It has a high affinity for avidin and streptavidin, making it a valuable tool in biotechnology applications such as affinity chromatography, cell labeling, and protein detection.
The succinimidyl glutaramide functional group is known for its ability to react with amine groups on molecules such as proteins and peptides, forming stable amide bonds. This allows for the covalent attachment of biotin-PEG to these molecules, resulting in biotinylated conjugates with improved stability, solubility, and functionality.
