Application

A homobifunctional, cleavable cross-linking reagent. Typically, reacted with primary amines in the pH range 7.0-10.0 to form amidine bonds.
Reactant for:
  • Synthesis of glutathione-sensitive cross-linked polyethylenimine gene vector
  • Preparation of cyclodextrin-containing polymers designed for gene delivery
  • Crosslinking of chick oviduct progesterone-receptor subunits

Other Notes

Note that the amidine linkage preserves original primary amine positive charge. The disulfide linkage is cleavable by mild reduction. Incorporates an eight atom linker.

Disclaimer

The reagant is readily hydrolyzed at neutral pH. Avoid use of reducing agents during coupling reactions.

Adhesion to the extracellular matrix persists during mitosis in most cell types. However, while classical adhesion complexes, such as focal adhesions, do and must disassemble to enable mitotic rounding, the mechanisms of residual mitotic cell-extracellular matrix adhesion remain undefined. Here

A Bu4NI-catalyzed, DTBP-promoted, regioselective C(sp2)-C(sp3) cross dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) protocol for the direct C-3 benzylation of 2H-indazoles is reported. The metal-free protocol is operationally simple and proceeds mechanistically via the generation of stable benzylic free-radicals followed by regioselective addition at

Antibody fragment (Fab')-installed polyion complex (PIC) micelles were constructed to improve targetability of small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery to pancreatic cancer cells. To this end, we synthesized a block copolymer of azide-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) and poly(l-lysine) and prepared PIC micelles

We investigated whether the assembly/disassembly of the 26S proteasome is regulated by phosphorylation/dephosphorylation. The regulatory complex disassembled from the 26S proteasome was capable of phosphorylating the p45/Sug1/Rpt6 subunit, suggesting that the protein kinase is activated upon dissociation of the 26S
