DTSSP

(Protein Crosslinker homobifunctional)


CL103   3,3'-Dithiobis(sulfosuccinimidylpropionate)
[ 81069-02-5 ]   f.w.: 608.5 daltons

DTSSP is a water soluble crosslinker that contains amine reactive NHS ester ends around an 8-atom spacer arm, whose central disulfide bond can be cleaved with reducing agents such as DTT, TCEP or DTBA.

•Amine reactive sulfo NHS ester reacts rapidly with any primary amine containing molecule

•Disulfide bond in the spacer arm is readily cleaved by 10-50 mM DTT or TCEP at pH 8.5

•Spacer arm is also cleaved with 5% ?-mercaptoethanol in SDS-PAGE sample loading buffer at 100°C for 5 minutes

•Cleavable crosslinker allows separation of crosslinked products

•DTSSP crosslinker is not membrane permeable, so it is used for cell surface crosslinking
