MTS-TEAE is a water soluble, bulkier analogue of the charged MTS reagent MTSET. Charged MTS reagents have been used successfully with SCAM (substituted cysteine accessibility method) to probe the topology and function of a number of ligand-gated ion channels and transporter proteins. MTS-TEAE, also known as (2-(Trimethylammonium)ethyl) methanethiosulfonate, is used in bioconjugation and protein modification studies. It is a sulfhydryl-reactive reagent that selectively reacts with cysteine residues in proteins, forming a covalent bond. MTS-TEAE is often employed in site-directed mutagenesis and protein engineering techniques to introduce specific modifications or probes at cysteine residues.
