Description
Thermo Scientific™ Pierce BS(PEG)n Crosslinkers include BS(PEG)5 and BS(PEG)9, which are bis-succinimide ester-activated PEG compounds for crosslinking between primary amines in proteins and other molecules.
BS(PEG)5 is a bis-succinimide ester-activated PEG compound used for crosslinking between primary amines (—NH2) in proteins and other molecules. The N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (NHS) groups at either end of the PEG5 spacer react specifically and efficiently with lysine and N-terminal amino groups at pH 7-9 to form stable amide bonds.
Thermo Scientific No-Weigh products are specialty reagents provided in a pre-aliquoted format. The pre-weighed packaging prevents the loss of reagent reactivity and contamination over time by eliminating the repetitive opening and closing of the vial. The format enables use of a fresh vial of reagent each time, eliminating the hassle of weighing small amounts of reagents and reducing concerns over reagent stability.
Features of BS(PEG)5:
- Reactive groups: NHS ester (both ends)
- Reactive towards: amino groups (primary amines)
- NHS esters react with—NH2 groups at pH 7-9, forming stable amide bonds
- Water-soluble; compare to non-pegylated BS3 (also soluble) (Cat. No. 21580) and DSS (water-insoluble) (Cat. No. 21655)
- Membrane-impermeable, allowing for cell surface labeling
- Irreversibly crosslink proteins or peptides by flexible PEG spacer arms
- Polyethylene glycol spacer arms help maintain conjugate solubility
- Pure compound with defined structure and molecular weight, ensuring reproducible protein-modification effects
- PEG spacer provides unique advantages, including increased stability, reduced tendency toward aggregation and reduced immunogenicity
- Ideal for small molecule or peptide conjugations
