Scientific Background | Biotin-Ahx-{Cys} {His} {Gln} {Phe} {Arg} {Phe} {Cit} {Gly} {Cit} is a 12-residue synthetic peptide with the sequence Cys-His-Gln-Phe-Arg-Phe-Gly-Ser-Arg-Ala-Ala-Cys. Biotin provides an affinity handle for streptavidin-based capture or detection; the Ahx spacer separates the peptide sequence from an attached label or affinity handle. The sequence contains 2 cysteine residues, which can support thiol-selective conjugation or disulfide chemistry when the thiol is available. No specific receptor, enzyme, pathway, disease association, or biological activity is assigned without product-specific experimental evidence. |
Experimental Notes | Sequence-derived chemical properties are provided to support reagent selection and experimental planning. They do not establish a biological function. Solubility, aggregation, adsorption, conjugation efficiency, and assay performance should be validated under the intended experimental conditions. |
