DETAILS

Description (English)
Application
An excellent reagent for maintaining SH groups in reduced state; quantitatively reduces disulfides. DTT is effective in sample buffers for reducing protein disulfide bonds prior to SDS-PAGE. DTT can also be used for reducing the disulfide bridge of the cross-linker N,N′-bis(acryloyl)cystamine to break apart the matrix of a polyacrylamide gel. DTT is less pungent and is less toxic than 2-mercaptoethanol. Typically, a seven fold lower concentration of DTT (100 mM) is needed than is used for 2-mercaptoethanol (5% v/v, 700 mM).
Other Notes
Cleavage of disulfide bonds in proteins;1 In the investigation of incremental and kinetic reduction in proteins;2 Prevents the oxidation of cholecystokinin during its extraction from brain and duodenal tissues;3 In protein sequence analysis.4
Description (简体中文)
Application
用于将 -SH 基保持在还原态的绝佳试剂;定量还原二硫化物。在 SDS-PAGE 前,DTT 在样品缓冲液中可有效还原蛋白二硫键。DTT 还可用于还原交联剂 N,N′-双(丙烯酰)胱胺的二硫键桥以分解聚丙烯酰胺凝胶基质。DTT 的刺激性和毒性都低于 2-巯基乙醇。通常,使用 DTT (100mM) 所需的浓度是使用 2-巯基乙醇 (5% v/v, 700mM) 的浓度的七分之一。
