Fmoc-Lys(biotin-PEG12)-OH (CAS: 1334172-64-3) is a versatile lysine derivative used in peptide synthesis and bioconjugation. Featuring an Fmoc-protected lysine with a biotin-PEG12 chain, it offers enhanced solubility, flexibility, and easy biotin labeling.
Features and Applications:
- Fmoc Protection: Safeguards the lysine’s amino group during peptide synthesis, allowing precise integration into peptide chains.
- Biotin-PEG12: The PEG12 spacer improves solubility and reduces steric hindrance, enabling effective biotin labeling for strong interactions with biotin-binding proteins.
- Applications:
- Peptide Synthesis: Ideal for creating biotin-labeled peptides for research and diagnostics.
- Bioconjugation: Labels proteins, antibodies, and biomolecules for drug delivery, molecular imaging, and diagnostics.
- Affinity Purification: Facilitates purification using streptavidin or avidin systems.
- Molecular Imaging: Enhances the attachment of biotinylated molecules to imaging probes.
Fmoc-Lys(biotin-PEG12)-OH is essential for efficient and flexible biotin labeling in biomedical research, diagnostics, and targeted drug delivery.
