Alkynyl Myristic Acid (CAS: 82909-47-5)
Alkynyl Myristic Acid is a myristic acid analog with an ω-terminal alkyne group, enabling bioorthogonal conjugation through copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). It is commonly used to label and study post-translationally myristoylated proteins in biological research.
Key Features:
- Alkyne Group: Allows specific conjugation with azide-containing molecules via click chemistry
- Myristic Acid Analog: Mimics natural myristic acid for protein incorporation
Applications:
- Protein Labeling: Detects and analyzes myristoylated proteins in biological systems
- Click Chemistry Reagent: Serves as a substrate for bioorthogonal reactions with azide-functionalized probes
Handling and Storage:
- Molecular Formula: C₁₄H₂₄O₂
- Molecular Weight: 224.34 g/mol
- Purity: ≥95%
- Storage: Store at -20°C, protected from light and moisture
This product is widely used in protein research, enabling efficient labeling, detection, and study of lipid-modified proteins through click chemistry.
