Catalog | BR00028452 |
CAS | 72040-63-2 |
Description | NHS-LC-biotin (succinimidyl-6-(biotinamindo)hexanoate), also known as NHS-X-biotin is a derivative of D-biotin, a amine-reactive biotinylation agent, that contains a spacer arm off the valeric acid side chain of D-biotin with an NHS ester group at its end. The NHS ester group at the end of NHS-LC-biotin covalently binds to amine groups in proteins and other molecules forming a stable amide linkage and releasing the NHS group. The 6-aminocaproic acid spacer of NHS-LC-biotin greatly increases the length between a covalently modified molecule and the bicyclic biotin rings leading to a better binding potential for avidin or streptavidin probes. NHS-LC-biotin is insoluble in aqueous environments requiring the dissolution of organic solvents prior to the addition to a buffered reaction. |
