N-(Propargyl-PEG4)-biocytin
This product is a biotin derivative containing a PEG4 spacer and a terminal propargyl (alkyne) group. The biotin moiety provides strong binding to streptavidin/avidin, while the alkyne enables bioorthogonal click chemistry with azides, making it ideal for targeted labeling and multifunctional bioconjugation.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
Biotin Moiety: Ensures high-affinity binding to streptavidin and avidin systems.
-
Propargyl Group: Supports CuAAC and SPAAC click chemistry with azides.
-
PEG4 Spacer: Enhances solubility and reduces steric hindrance in conjugation.
-
High Purity: Provides reproducible performance in labeling workflows.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines affinity capture with click-enabled conjugation.
Applications:
-
Affinity Labeling: Biotinylation of proteins, peptides, and other biomolecules.
-
Click Chemistry: Propargyl–azide conjugation for dual labeling strategies.
-
Drug Delivery: Biotin-mediated targeting combined with orthogonal payload conjugation.
-
Surface Modification: Functionalize biosensors, nanoparticles, or hydrogels.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a dry, light-protected container.
-
Handling: Use freshly prepared anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO) to maintain alkyne reactivity.
This product provides high-affinity biotin binding with click-ready alkyne functionality, making it an especially versatile linker for advanced conjugation and targeted labeling.
