Its valeric-acid carboxyl is activated as an N-hydroxysuccinimide ester. In a single step it couples biotin to proteins, peptides, and other amine-bearing molecules. It is among the most widely used biotinylation reagents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmine coupling.\u003c\/strong\u003e The activated ester reacts with primary amines: the ε-amino group of lysine side chains and the α-amino group at each polypeptide N-terminus. Coupling runs in physiological to mildly alkaline buffer, pH 7–9. The amine attacks the ester carbonyl and displaces N-hydroxysuccinimide, leaving a stable amide bond. The amide is effectively irreversible under physiological conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompeting hydrolysis.\u003c\/strong\u003e Water competes with the amine for the ester, so the reagent hydrolyses in parallel to free biotin. Hydrolysis accelerates with pH. Measured cold, at 0–4 °C, the ester half-life is roughly 4–5 hours at pH 7 and about 10 minutes at pH 8.6; it runs faster at room temperature. Reactions are therefore run promptly, at pH 7.2–8.5, in amine-free buffer. Excess reagent is quenched with Tris, glycine, or hydroxylamine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelectivity and control.\u003c\/strong\u003e The reagent is preferential for primary amines, not exclusive to them. Serine, threonine, and tyrosine hydroxyls react as minor side products, and histidine imidazole gives adducts that hydrolyse. The lysine ε-amino (pKₐ ≈ 10.5) is far less reactive than the N-terminal α-amino at mildly acidic pH. Lowering the reaction to about pH 6.5 therefore biases labelling toward the N-terminus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSolubility and handling.\u003c\/strong\u003e The uncharged ester is poorly water-soluble and moisture-sensitive. It is dissolved first in DMSO or DMF, then diluted into aqueous buffer, and stored cold and desiccated. Its neutral, hydrocarbon character makes it membrane-permeable, so it biotinylates inside live cells. For aqueous work, the sulfonated analogue sulfo-NHS-biotin is membrane-impermeant and water-soluble.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetection and capture.\u003c\/strong\u003e Biotin is a small tag, 244 Da, and rarely perturbs the activity of what it labels. Avidin and streptavidin capture it with a dissociation constant on the order of 10⁻¹⁴ M, among the strongest non-covalent interactions known. This anchors the detection, purification, and surface immobilisation of biotinylated antibodies, proteins, and nucleic acids.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-bottom: 28px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: #002147; padding: 10px 20px; margin-bottom: 0;\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"margin: 0; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 0.70em; font-weight: bold; letter-spacing: 0.12em; text-transform: uppercase; color: #fff;\"\u003eShipping Destinations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"border: 1px solid #e4e8f0; border-top: none; padding: 12px 16px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 0.95em;\"\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"margin: 0; padding: 0; list-style: none;\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 5px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display: inline-block; width: 7px; height: 7px; background: #002147; border-radius: 50%; margin-right: 10px; vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eEU \u0026amp; UK: Priority delivery, 1–2 business days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 5px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #f0f0f0;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"display: inline-block; width: 7px; height: 7px; background: #002147; border-radius: 50%; margin-right: 10px; vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eEFTA Countries (DDP): 1–2 business days, duties and taxes prepaid.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"NorrChemica™","offers":[{"title":"250 mg","offer_id":54251975541073,"sku":"NOR-35013720-250mg","price":59.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"1.0 g","offer_id":54251975573841,"sku":"NOR-35013720-1g","price":74.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"2.5 g","offer_id":54251975606609,"sku":"NOR-35013720-2.5g","price":129.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"5.0 g","offer_id":54251975639377,"sku":"NOR-35013720-5g","price":229.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/6357\/1793\/files\/NorrChemica_Biotin-NHS.png?v=1782913246","url":"https:\/\/www.norrchemica.com\/products\/nhs-biotin-cas-35013-72-0","provider":"NorrChemica","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
