Application

Succinylated poly-L-lysine has been used to bind (Gly)3-Arg-bradykinin to study its hydrolysis by brain endopeptidases and pancreatic proteinases.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Poly-L-lysine is a cationic polymer. It is mainly used for immobilizing cells to glass substrates or negatively charged substrates.
An intermediate for coupling proteins to poly-L-lysine.

Analysis Note

Molecular weight based on precursor poly-L-lysine viscosity. Also assayed by MALLS.

Avidin-coupled monoclonal antibody MX35 (avidin-MX35) and astatine-211-labeled, biotinylated, succinylated poly-l-lysine ((211)At-B-PL(suc)) were administered in mice to assess potential efficacy as an intraperitoneal (i.p.) therapy for microscopic tumors. We aimed to establish a timeline for pretargeted radioimmunotherapy using these substances, and
