Protein Linking and Labeling Systems

Supplier: Thermo Fisher Scientific

Cross linkers are used for the identification of near-neighbour protein relationships and ligand-receptor interactions. Homobifunctional, amine-reactive NHS esters or imidates, and heterobifunctional, amine-reactive, photoactivatable phenyl azides are the most commonly used crosslinkers for these applications.

Dihydrorhodamine 123 is the reduced form of rhodamine 123, which is a commonly used fluorescent mitochondrial dye. It is non-fluorescent, but it readily enters most of the cells and is oxidized by oxidative species or by cellular redox systems to the fluorescent rhodamine 123 that accumulates in mitochondrial membranes. It is useful for detecting reactive oxygen species including superoxide (in the presence of peroxidase or cytochrome c) and peroxynitrite. Dihydrorhodamine 123 dihydrochloride is functionally equivalent to dihydrorhodamine 123 but with increased stability toward air oxidation and light during storage. Dihydroethidium (also called hydroethidium) is the chemically reduced form of the commonly used DNA dye ethidium bromide. The probe is useful to detect oxidative activities in viable cells, including respiratory burst in phagocytes. Dihydroethidium itself has blue fluorescence (355/420 nm) in cells, while the oxidized form ethidium has red fluorescence (518/605 nm) upon DNA intercalation. H2DCFDA (2′,7′-Dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate) is a useful fluorogenic reagent to detect reactive oxygen intermediates in cells. On oxidation, H2DCFDA becomes the highly green fluorescent 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescein, 504/529 nm (end product).

Maleimide-Activated Streptavidin is for directly preparing streptavidin-protein conjugates with proteins, peptides and other molecules that contain a free sulphhydryl (-SH) group. Streptavidin has been maleimide-activated using Sulpho-SMCC, a heterobifunctional crosslinker that contains an N-hydroxysuccinimide ester and a maleimide group. The activated streptavidin presents an available maleimide group that reacts with sulphhydryl-containing molecules.

Ghost Dye Red 710 is an amine reactive viability dye, that can be used to discriminate viable from non-viable mammalian cells in flow cytometry applications.

Supplier: G-Biosciences

HOOK™ Biotin Reagent that conjugates to proteins through amines, sulfhydryls, carboxyls or carbohydrates. The amine and sulfhydryl coupling HOOK™ Biotin Reagents couple directly to the protein through their reactive groups, however the carboxyl coupling HOOK™ Biotin Reagents require a carbodiimide crosslinker and the carbohydrate coupling HOOK™ Biotin Reagents require carbohydrate oxidation before coupling.

Supplier: G-Biosciences

The HOOK™ Peptide Coupling kits allow researchers to attach peptides to a carrier protein of choice using either primary amines or sulfhydryls in their peptide. The HOOK™ Peptide Coupling kits can be supplied with or without carrier proteins.
