Application

N6-((2-Azidoethoxy)carbonyl)-L-lysine hydrochloride is a clickable amino acid derivative for site-specific incorporation into recombinant proteins or synthesis of chemical probes and tools for biological applications. This non-canonical lysine possesses an azide for bioorthogonal reaction with alkynes.
