4-N-Maleimidobenzoicacid-NHS
Biochemical Assay Reagent
4-N-Maleimidobenzoicacid-NHS functions primarily as a bioconjugation reagent, targeting thiol groups for selective covalent attachment. The maleimide moiety enables efficient coupling of proteins, peptides, or other biomolecules to thiol-containing entities. In addition, the NHS ester readily reacts with primary amines, such as lysine side chains or aminosilane-coated surfaces, under neutral to slightly basic conditions, forming stable covalent bonds. This compound is ideal for use in biochemical assays, protein labeling, and other applications requiring precise functionalization.
