Properties
Description
Iodoacetate-chondroitin sulfate alkylating agent is synthesized for thiol-selective conjugation, creating stable thioether linkages with cysteine-containing proteins.
Glycan Name
Chondroitin sulfate
Glycan Structure
The glycan structure of chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composed of repeating disaccharide units. Each unit consists of:
N-acetyl-D-galactosamine (GalNAc) (β1→4 linked)
D-glucuronic acid (GlcA) (β1→87 linked)
Source
Chemical synthesis
Functional Group
Iodoacetate
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Chondroitin sulfate-iodoacetate can be used for its potential to study lipoic acid disulfide bonds in redox-responsive release systems.
