Thermo Scientific Pierce KMUH is a long, maleimide-and-hydrazide crosslinker for conjugating sulfhydryls (cysteines) to carbonyls (aldehyde or ketones, such as those formed by oxidation of glycoprotein carbohydrates).
Highlights:
- Sulfhydryl-reactive and carbonyl-reactive heterobifunctional crosslinking agent
- Long, non-cleavable, aliphatic cross-bridge
- Hydrazide group covalently couples to oxidized carbohydrate residues in glycoproteins and other glycoconjugates
- Maleimide reacts with -SH groups at pH 6.5-7.5, forming stable thioether linkages
- Reactive groups: maleimide and hydrazide
- Reactive toward: sulfhydryl and carbonyl (aldehyde)/carboxyl groups
