Application

d-Desthiobiotin has been used as a component of elution buffers:
  • to elute the precipitated proteins from the resin during coimmunoprecipitation
  • to elute human Cdc45–MCM–GINS (CMG) helicase during chromatographic protein purification
  • to elute the heterodimeric kinesin family member 3A/B (KIF3A/B) and kinesin associated protein 3 (KAP3)-binding APC armadillo (APCARM) domain during chromatographic purification

d-Desthiobiotin is used in affinity chromatography and protein chromatography. d-Desthiobiotin can be used for protein labeling, detection and isolation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Desthiobiotin is a non-sulfur containing biotin derivative that binds less strongly to biotin-binding proteins and is easily dislocated by biotin.

Biotin is an essential enzyme cofactor that acts as a CO2 carrier in carboxylation and decarboxylation reactions. The E. coli genome encodes a biosynthetic pathway that produces biotin from pimeloyl-CoA in four enzymatic steps. The final step, insertion of sulfur

In mammals, biotin serves as a coenzyme for carboxylases such as propionyl-CoA carboxylase. The expression of genes encoding interleukin-2 (IL-2) and IL-2 receptor (IL-2R)gamma also depends on biotin. Biotin metabolites are structurally similar to biotin, and their concentrations in tissues

Tissue transglutaminase (TGc) has recently been identified as the major, if not the sole, autoantigen of gluten-sensitive enteropathy (GSE). We developed and validated an ELISA based on the human recombinant antigen and compared it to existing serological tests for GSE
