DETAILS

Description (English)
Application
Used for the denaturation of proteins and as a mild solubilization agent for insoluble or denatured proteins. Useful for renaturing proteins from samples already denatured with 6 M guanidine chloride such as inclusion bodies. May be used with guanidine hydrochloride and dithiothreitrol (DTT) in the refolding of denatured proteins into their native or active form.
Other Notes
Denaturing reagent1; Commonly used in conjunction with polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis for the fractionation of single-stranded nucleic acids with chains of up to 200 nucleotides2,3,4
Description (简体中文)
Application
用于蛋白质变性以及作为不溶性或变性蛋白的温和增溶剂。可用于从已由 6M 盐酸胍变性的样品(如包涵体)复性蛋白质。可与盐酸胍和二硫苏糖醇 (DTT) 一起用于复性变性蛋白以恢复其天然或活性形式。
