Application

Fmoc-L-Lys(Nvoc)-OH is a lysine derivative compatible with solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). The photolabile, N-terminal protecting group nitroveratryloxycarbonyl (NVOC) can be cleaved by photolysis at 350 nm. Photocaged amino acids such as these are useful in the synthesis of photocleavable chemical tools for spatial and temporal control over released molecules in biological applications.

Product can be used with our line of photoreactors: Including Penn PhD (Z744035) & SynLED 2.0 (Z744080)

We report the chemical synthesis of the first photo-activatable protein antigen that can be used to study antigen-antibody interaction mediated responses in B cells. This strategy facilitated fine tuning of the caged protein antigen to optimize its bioactivity and photochemical

The physicochemical properties of hydrogels can be manipulated in both space and time through the controlled application of a light beam. However, methods for hydrogel photopatterning either fail to maintain the bioactivity of fragile proteins and are thus limited to
