Scientific Background | A 15 amino acid tag on the C-terminal tail of Alpha Synuclein facilitates site-specific covalent biotinylation (1). Biotinylation of purified alpha synuclein allows for many biological applications, such as monitoring and detection using streptavidin-based conjugates (1, 2, 3). Our biotinylated monomers are also used to generate pre-formed fibrils in-vitro. |

Biotinylation assay on purified Alpha Synuclein Monomers: Biotinylated (C-Terminus). The assay is performed on 123uM of alpha synuclein monomers post-biotinylation (SPR-507), with 100uM of biotin as a positive control & ultrapure water as a negative control. Absorbance is measured at 500nm, and results are converted to % of biotinylation.
