Thiolating reagent for primary amines; thiol can be deprotected under mild conditions. Typically, couples initially to a molecule containing primary amine by amide bond buffered at pH 7.5. Deprotection may be accomplished with 0.05 M hydroxylamine at neutral pH. Useful for preparation of enzyme immunoconjugates and hapten carrier molecule conjugates.
Other Notes
Note that the ester couples very efficiently to primary amines compared to other thiolating reagents. In addition, this reagent will neutralize original amine positive charge.
An efficient strategy is reported to introduce methacrylamide groups on the lysine residues of a model protein (lysozyme) for immobilization and triggered release from a hydrogel network. A novel spacer unit was designed, containing a disulfide bond, such that the
Methods are described for the preparation of anionic and cationic liposomes and proteoliposomes with covalently linked lectins or antibodies by the extrusion technique (vesicles by extrusion, VETs). The liposomes are prepared from the phospholipid dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), together with the anionic
The intracellular activity of certain antiviral agents, including antisense oligonucleotides, acyclic nucleoside phosphonates, and protease inhibitors, is enhanced when they are delivered in liposome-encapsulated form. In this chapter we describe the preparation of pH-sensitive liposomes encapsulating antisense oligonucleotides, ribozymes, and

The introduction of reactive thiol groups in recombinant human tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha (rhTNF-alpha) by the reagent succinimidyl-S-acetylthioacetate resulted in the formation of a chemically stabilized rhTNF-alpha trimer (rhTNFalpha-AT; as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis). rhTNFalpha-AT
Sulfhydryl selective reactions were explored to conjugate oligomers of a peptidomimetic integrin alphavbeta3 antagonist, 4-[2-(3,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidine-2-ylamino)ethyloxy]benzoyl-2-(S)-aminoethylsulfonylamino-beta-alanine (IA) to monoclonal antibody (MoAb) to increase integrin alphavbeta3 receptor-binding avidity. To generate sulfhydryl groups, N-succinimidyl-S-acetylthioacetate (SATA) was conjugated to both MoAb and IA. Sulfhydryl
