:L-Dithiothreitol
Description:
L-Dithiothreitol (DTT) is a small-molecule reducing agent commonly used in biochemistry and molecular biology. It is characterized by its ability to break disulfide bonds in proteins, thereby maintaining them in a reduced state, which is crucial for preserving protein structure and function during experimental procedures. DTT is a colorless, crystalline solid that is soluble in water and has a relatively low molecular weight. Its chemical structure features two thiol (-SH) groups, which are responsible for its reducing properties. DTT is often employed in protein purification, enzyme assays, and the stabilization of proteins during storage. However, it is sensitive to oxidation and can lose its reducing capability over time, especially in the presence of air or metal ions. Additionally, DTT can interfere with certain assays and reactions, so its use must be carefully considered in experimental design. Overall, L-Dithiothreitol is a vital reagent in the study of protein chemistry and enzymology.
