Description
MBS is a heterobifunction crosslinker that contains a maleimide group which is reactive towards sulfhydryls and an NHS ester, useful for targeting amine groups.
Chemical Properties
Crystalline
Uses
3-Maleimidobenzoic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester is a heterobifunctional coupling reagent useful for forming enzyme immunoconjugates. The reactive groups are the NHS ester and maeimide.
Uses
N-Succinimidyl 3-maleimidobenzoate is useful for forming enzyme immunoconjugates. It has a 9.9 Angstrom spacer arm. Heterobifunctional crosslinking reagent reactive toward primary amine and sulfhydryl. Useful for preparation of enzyme immunoconjugates and hapten carrier molecule conjugates
Biochem/physiol Actions
3-Maleimidobenzoic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide is used as a fixative for the preservation of pollen tube F-actin distribution. It imposes less damage when used on pollen tubes.
