BIOTIN HPDP

(Biotinylation Reagent)


B106   N-[6-(Biotinamido)hexyl]-3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionamide
  f.w.: 539.8 daltons

HPDP biotin is a pyridyl dithiol biotin compound for labeling protein cysteines and other molecules that contain sulfhydryl groups. This reagent specifically reacts with reduced thiols (-SH) in near neutral buffers to form reversible disulfide bonds. Biotinylation occurs between pH 6-9. The pyridine-2-thione leaving group can be measured at 343nm to determine the degree of biotinylation.

  • Biotin HPDP biotinylates antibodies or other proteins for use in protein methods
  • Thiol reactive - Biotin HPDP reacts with sulfhydryls (-SH), such as the side-chain of cysteine (C)
  • Pyridyldithiol activated perform reactions at pH 6.5 to 7.5 in buffers such as PBS
  • The reaction is reversible and forms disulfide bonds, which can be cleaved using DTT, TCEP, DTBA or other reducing agent
  • Must be dissolved in DMSO or DMF before further dilution in aqueous buffers
  • Medium length spacer arm is 29.2 angstroms
