Thermo Scientific Pierce MPBH 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:
- Has an oxidized carbohydrate specific hydrazide, a sulfhydryl reactive group and spacer arms to accommodate a wide range of molecular coupling demands
- -SH specific group is a maleimide that yields a thioether linkage upon coupling
- Stable in DMSO
- Reactive groups: hydrazide and maleimide
- Reactive towards: carbohydrate and sulfhydryl groups
- Use with EDC for reactivity toward carboxyl groups
