On demandThermo Scientific™ EZ-Link™ Iodoacetyl-PEG2-Biotin
Thermo Scientific EZ-Link Iodoacetyl-PEG2-Biotin is a mid-length, haloacetyl-activated, sulfhydryl-reactive biotinylation reagent that contains a 2-unit ethylene glycol in its spacer arm for increased water-solubility characteristics.
Iodoacetyl-PEG2-Biotin enables simple and efficient biotin labeling of antibodies, cysteine-containing peptides and other thiol-containing molecules. The iodoacetyl group reacts with reduced thiols (sulfhydryl groups,—SH) at alkaline pH to form stable thioether bond. The hydrophilic, 2-unit polyethylene glycol (PEG) spacer arm imparts water solubility that is transferred to the biotinylated molecule, thus reducing aggregation of labeled proteins stored in solution. The PEG segment adds length and flexibility to the spacer arm, minimizing steric hindrance involved with binding to avidin molecules.
Features
- Protein labeling—biotinylate antibodies or other proteins for use in protein methods
- Thiol-reactive—reacts with sulfhydryls (-SH), such as the side-chain of cysteine (C)
- Iodoacetyl-activated—perform reactions in the dark at pH 7.5 to 8.5 in Tris or borate buffer
- Pegylated—spacer arm contains a hydrophilic, 2-unit, polyethylene glycol (PEG) group
- Enhances solubility—pegylation imparts water solubility to the biotinylated molecule, helping to prevent aggregation of biotinylated antibodies stored in solution
- Irreversible—forms permanent thioether bonds; spacer arm cannot be cleaved
- Solubility—can be dissolved directly in aqueous buffers for labeling reactions
- Medium length—spacer arm (total length added to target) is 24.7 angstroms
