Application

Tetramethylrhodamine-5-maleimide has been used:
  • to concentrate the eluate and in labeling to create IRE1LDS112C
  • to derivatize green fluorescent protein (GFP) on Cys48 for experiments with the extrinsic fluorescent probe
  • to incubate the single solvent exposed cys mutant to perform protein labeling

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.
