This is a personalized conjugation kit (PerKit™) developed for labeling any IgG type antibody with small molecules containing carboxylic acid (-COOH) functional groups. Using the kit components, the customer converts the carboxylic acid to an activated N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester, followed by a reaction with the surface amine groups of the protein to form a stable amide bond. The final product is then purified to remove any unreacted small molecule acid.
This kit provides materials to label 1-3 mg of one IgG type antibody with a small molecule acid.
Requirement for Small Molecule
- Preferably > 90% pure by C18 HPLC
- Total amount: 20 µmol
- Absence of primary or secondary amine (-NH2) groups
- Preferably contains only one non-hindered aliphatic carboxylic acid (-COOH)
- For molecules containing aromatic carboxylic acid, hindered aliphatic carboxylic acid, or hydroxyl (-OH) groups, please consult CellMosaic® for custom conjugation service.
Requirement for Antibody (IgG)
- Preferably > 90% pure by gel electrophoresis
- Total amount: 1-3 mg protein content as measured by UV
Key Features of this PerKit™

- Fast and easy preparation: 4 h preparation and <30 minutes hands-on time
- Offers in-process optimization of the degree of loading during the conjugation
- All reagents and supplies included for preparation and purification
- Over 90% pure conjugated products by SEC
