Application

A heterobifunctional cross-linking reagent containing a sulfhydryl-specific group and a photo-active group. Typically, coupled initially by thioether to molecule containing free sulfhydryl buffered at pH 6.8 (6.5-7.0). Second bonding occurs during UV irradiation (250 nm) via diradical excited state. Benzophenones demonstrate greater specificity for C-H insertion and are more stable in water than analogous reagents. In general they are more efficient in attachment because they may be repeatedly irradiated; however, a more intense irradiation may be required. The benzophenone is not sensitive to reduction compared to analogous reagents.

The vacuolar (H+)-ATPases (V-ATPases) are multisubunit complexes responsible for ATP-dependent proton transport across both intracellular and plasma membranes. The V-ATPases are composed of a peripheral domain (V1) that hydrolyzes ATP and an integral domain (V0) that conducts protons. Dissociation of

It has been shown that the EGTA-resistant actin, one of the two actin molecules associated to gelsolin, can be predominantly cross-linked to gelsolin by benzophenone-4-maleimide (BPM), a photoaffinity-labeling reagent, which was conjugated to Cys-374 of actin prior to cross-linking (Doi

To attain light-dependent functionalization of biocompatible materials, a photolabel-derivatized, bioactive laminin fragment has been synthesized, chemically characterized, and photoimmobilized. Covalent high-resolution patterning of the laminin fragment CDPGYIGSR to hydroxylated fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP-OH), poly(vinyl alcohol), and glycophase glass has been

Bacterial detoxification of mercuric ion depends on the presence of one or more integral membrane proteins (MerT and/or MerC) whose postulated function is in transport of Hg2+ from a periplasmic Hg2+-binding protein (MerP) to cytoplasmic mercuric reductase. In this study

The site-specific photocrosslinker, benzophenone-4-maleimide, was used to label G-actin specifically at Cys-374, the penultimate residue from the C terminus. The resultant BP-G-actin was polymerized to form BP-F-actin, and both forms of actin were irradiated to activate the benzophenone moiety. We
