• Beschreibung: (5S)-N-(5-Amino-1-carboxypentyl) iminodiacetic acid hydrate is a sophisticated chelating agent, designed for precise control in various biochemical applications. The reactive moieties of this compound are particularly useful in affinity chromatography and surface functionalization, making it a valuable tool in both protein purification and the development of biosensors or other biotechnological applications. Affinity chromatography: As a metal-chelator, it is particularly adept at binding divalent metal cations such as Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, and Cu²⁺, which are instrumental in stabilizing protein structures or facilitating enzyme activity. When complexed with Ni²⁺ (nickel) ions (5S)-N-(5-Amino-1-carboxypentyl) iminodiacetic acid forms a surface that can specifically capture proteins engineered with a polyhistidine tag (His-tag). Such interactions facilitate the purification and isolation of target proteins with high specificity, allowing immobilization in a controlled orientation without compromising functional integrity.Surface functionalization: The free amine group allows for conjugation via strong covalent bonds to surfaces such as glass, silica, gold (e.g., electrodes), polymers, hydrogels and magnetic beads. This creates metal-functionalized surfaces for biospecific interactions with His-tagged proteins. Examples of potential applications of this include Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR), fluorescence microscopy and use in artificial cell systems with hydrogel-based cell-mimicking environments. Thus giving (5S)-N-(5-Amino-1-carboxypentyl) iminodiacetic acid a broad scope in its application in advanced biochemical assays and materials science.
