Description:

Nanocs SnapLink maleimide acid is an amine and sulfhydryl reactive crosslinker. This crossliker is non-cleavable and water soluble. It contains a carboxylic acid that can be activated with EDC and reacts toward primary amine groups. The maleimide group reacts with available sulfhydryl groups from naturally occurring or mutagenically derived cysteine residues at pH 6.5~7.5 to form stable thioether bonds.
