Thermo Scientific Pierce BMPH is a short, maleimide-and-hydrazide crosslinker for conjugating sulfhydryls (cysteines) to carbonyls (aldehyde or ketones, such as those formed by oxidation of glycoprotein carbohydrates).
Highlights:
- Reactive groups: maleimide and hydrazide
- Reactive toward: sulfhydryl groups and carbonyl (aldehyde)/carboxyl groups
- Sulfhydryl-reactive and carbonyl-reactive heterobifunctional reagent
- Maleimide reacts with -SH groups at pH 6.5-7.5, forming stable thioether linkages
- Water-soluble and non-cleavable
- Useful for covalently coupling to oxidized carbohydrate moieties in glycoproteins and other glycoconjugates
