Application

Heterobifunctional crosslinking reagent reactive toward primary amine and sulfhydryl. Typically, coupled initially to molecules containing primary amines by amide bonds buffered at pH 7.0, followed by coupling to compounds containing sulfhydryl by thioether at same pH. Useful for preparation of enzyme immunoconjugates and hapten carrier molecule conjugates.

Other Notes

The aryl maleimide is less stable than alkyl maleimide linkers.

The synthesis of peptides containing 0, 1 and 2 cysteine residues related to the human sperm tail protein, tpx-1, is described. These synthetic peptides, following conjugation to keyhole limpet hemocyanin modified with maleimidobenzoic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester, were used as immunogens

Polymerization of G-actin in the presence of salt and phalloidin was blocked by treatment of G-actin with m-maleimidobenzoic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (MBS) (designated as m-actin). The actin dimer produced by chemical crosslinking of F-actin with N,N'-p-phenylenedimaleimide did not polymerize and
