BS2G Crosslinker
This product is a water-soluble, homobifunctional NHS ester crosslinker. It contains two sulfo-NHS ester groups connected by a glutarate spacer, enabling efficient and stable amide bond formation with primary amines. BS2G is non-cleavable, highly soluble in aqueous buffers, and especially used for protein-protein, protein-peptide, and biomolecule conjugations.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Homobifunctional Crosslinker: Contains two NHS ester groups for amine-to-amine conjugation.
-
Water-Soluble: Eliminates the need for organic solvents.
-
Non-Cleavable Linkage: Provides stable, permanent crosslinks.
-
Glutarate Spacer: Ensures defined spacing and reduced steric hindrance.
-
High Efficiency: Rapid, reproducible reactions under mild aqueous conditions.
Applications:
-
Protein-Protein Crosslinking: Stabilize protein complexes for biochemical studies.
-
Peptide Conjugation: Attach peptides or small amines to carrier proteins.
-
Bioconjugate Development: Ideal for immunology, enzyme studies, and labeling assays.
-
Surface Modification: Functionalize biomaterials or nanoparticles with amine-reactive chemistry.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store desiccated at –20 °C, away from light and moisture.
-
Handling: Prepare fresh solutions before use; hydrolyzes in aqueous buffer.
This product offers strong, stable amine-to-amine conjugation in aqueous systems, making it an especially versatile tool for protein research and bioconjugation.
