Biochem/physiol Actions

Monobromobimanes are essentially nonfluorescent until conjugated and readily react with low molecular weight thiols. Unlike common monobromobimanes, this carries a positive charge, thus permitting separation of conjugates by electrophoresis or cation-exchange chromatography

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

The single cysteinyl residue 26 of spinach calmodulin was labelled with the thiol-specific bimane fluorescence probe. Following application of stoichiometric quantities of Ca2+ or aluminum ions to the protein, temperature-dependent fluorescence changes (anisotropy, lifetime) could be monitored via the label.

Cell surface thiols are required for a line of cloned murine natural killer lymphocytes to bind to and lyse tumor target cells. These lymphocytes neither bound to nor killed YAC-1 or G1Tc cells when the effector lymphocyte cell surface thiols

The accessibility of cell surface sulfhydryl groups in human peripheral lymphocytes was investigated with 5,5'-dithiobis-(2-nitrobenzoic acid) in the presence and absence of ionophore antibiotics and the monoclonal antibody, OKT-3. Only a few accessible protein thiols have been found on the

Organic thiols are highly reactive ligands and play an important role in the speciation of several metals and organic pollutants in the environment. Although small thiols can be isolated and their concentrations can be estimated using chromatographic and derivatization techniques

FEBS letters, 475(2), 89-92 (2000-06-20)
Cell adhesion is mediated by the integrin adhesion receptors. Receptor-ligand interaction involves conformational changes in the receptor, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Our earlier work implied a role for sulfhydryls in integrin response to ligand binding in the intact
