Pyrene-PEG6-Biotin is a versatile bioconjugation reagent that combines the fluorescent properties of pyrene with the biotin-binding functionality. The PEG6 (polyethylene glycol) spacer provides flexibility and reduces steric hindrance, enhancing the biotin’s ability to bind to avidin or streptavidin. Pyrene’s strong fluorescence makes this compound ideal for studying molecular interactions and labeling applications.
Key Features:
- Fluorescent Pyrene Group: Enables easy tracking and detection through fluorescence.
- PEG6 Spacer: Improves flexibility and reduces steric hindrance for effective binding.
- Biotin Functional Group: Binds strongly to avidin/streptavidin for bioconjugation applications.
- Water-Soluble: Easily dissolves in aqueous environments for versatile use.
Applications:
- Fluorescence Labeling: Ideal for tracking biotin-labeled biomolecules.
- Protein Interaction Studies: Perfect for studying protein-biotin interactions in biological systems.
- Bioconjugation: Useful for labeling proteins, peptides, and other molecules in various assays.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry place, away from light to maintain stability.
