General description

D-Desthiobiotin provides a gentle elution of Strep•Tag II proteins from the biotin-binding site of Strep•Tactin resins. The D-Desthiobiotin is offered as a lyophilized powder for preparation of elution buffer.

Application

D-Desthiobiotin has been used to elute recombinant strap-tag proteins bound to Strep-Tactin superflow high capacity resin.

Biochem/physiol Actions

D-Desthiobiotin is an analog of biotin. It is a non-sulfur metabolite and a biotin precursor. It displays lower binding towards biotin-binding proteins when compared to biotin.

Components

•: 1 g: D-Desthiobiotin

Work from multiple laboratories has clarified how the structural domains of botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT/A) disable neuronal exocytosis, but important questions remain unanswered. Because BoNT/A intoxication disables its own uptake, light chain (LC) does not accumulate in neurons at detectable

The high-affinity binding of biotin to avidin, streptavidin, and related proteins has been exploited for decades. However, a disadvantage of the biotin/biotin-binding protein interaction is that it is essentially irreversible under physiological conditions. Desthiobiotin is a biotin analogue that binds

Characterizing cell surface receptors mediating viral infection is critical for understanding viral tropism and developing antiviral therapies. Nevertheless, due to challenges associated with detecting protein interactions on the cell surface, the host receptors of many human pathogens remain unknown. Here
