Product Information

• Name: 2-Azidoethyl methanesulfonate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Azidoethyl methanesulfonate is a linker that can be used to attach azides to proteins. It has been shown to increase the sensitivity of biophysical techniques such as vibrational spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, and surface plasmon resonance. 2-Azidoethyl methanesulfonate has also been used in structural biology studies by attaching fluorescent proteins to proteins. The aliphatic chain of this molecule provides flexibility and increases the solubility of the protein. This allows for conformational changes of the protein in response to external stimuli. 2-Azidoethyl methanesulfonate is a monomer that contains both functional groups and reactive groups that react with other molecules.
