General description
Furthermore, EDAC HCl serves as a biomolecule bridge, acting as a crosslinker that connects amine-reactive NHS-esters of biomolecules to carboxyl groups. This technique proves invaluable in protein conjugation, enabling the creation of hybrid molecules with novel properties and functions. The underlying mechanism involves EDAC HCl′s reaction with a carboxyl group, forming an unstable intermediate that actively seeks an amine partner. The delicate balance of this reaction underscores the importance of optimizing conditions for efficient conjugation. The assistance of N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) further enhances EDAC HCl′s capabilities by stabilizing the intermediate and enabling two-step conjugation procedures. This additional feature provides greater flexibility and control, particularly when dealing with complex biomolecules.
