5-(Iodoacetamido)fluorescein (CAS 63368-54-7)
QUICK LINKS
5-(Iodoacetamido)fluorescein is a molecule used in biochemical research for labeling proteins, peptides, and other biomolecules. Its ability to covalently attach to thiol groups in cysteine residues through its iodoacetamide functional group underlies its frequent application in fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. This compound is particularly valuable for investigating protein structure and dynamics, as the attached fluorescein moiety provides a fluorescent signal that can be detected and quantified. In protein-protein interaction studies, 5-(Iodoacetamido)fluorescein facilitates the visualization of complex formations, thereby aiding in the elucidation of molecular mechanisms. It is also used in the study of enzymatic activities and conformational changes in proteins, as the fluorescent properties of the compound change upon binding, providing a measure of the biochemical processes in real-time.
