Uses

Used in Bioconjugation and Labeling Processes:
Biotin-PEG2-azide is utilized as a bioconjugation agent for the attachment of biomolecules to other entities, such as nanoparticles or other proteins. Its biotin component allows for specific binding to streptavidin or avidin, facilitating the precise and stable linkage of target molecules.
Used in Diagnostic Tool Development:
In the medical and biological research fields, Biotin-PEG2-azide is employed as a component in the creation of diagnostic tools. Its ability to bind with high specificity to streptavidin or avidin proteins makes it an ideal candidate for the development of assays and tests that require the detection or measurement of specific biomolecules.
Used in Protein Detection and Purification:
Biotin-PEG2-azide is used as a detection and purification agent in protein research. Biotin-PEG2-azide's biotin molecule can bind to streptavidin or avidin, which can then be used to capture and isolate specific proteins from complex mixtures, aiding in the study and characterization of these proteins.
Used in the Development of Bioassays:
Biotin-PEG2-azide is employed as a key component in the development of bioassays, which are tests used to measure the biological activity of a substance. Its ability to bind specifically to streptavidin or avidin proteins allows for the creation of sensitive and specific assays for a variety of applications in biological and medical research.

The Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Some C-9 and C-10 Substituted Derivatives of the RNA Polymerase i Transcription Inhibitor CX-5461

The regio-isomeric alkynyl-substituted derivatives, 2 and 3, of the RNA Polymerase I (Pol I) transcription inhibitor CX-5461 (1) were prepared and the active one (compound 3) subjected to click reactions ([3 + 2]-cycloaddition reactions) with certain alkyl azides bearing biotin or fluorescent tags. Compounds 2 and 3, as well as four [3 + 2]-cycloadducts of the latter, were subjected to biological evaluation in a human acute myeloid leukemia cell line model. Among the six compounds tested only alkyne 3 remained active but this was less potent than parent 1.

Bilateral biotin-phthalocyanine zinc conjugate as well as preparation and application thereof

The invention discloses a bilateral biotin-phthalocyanine zinc conjugate as well as preparation and application thereof. According to the conjugate disclosed by the invention, a biotin-cell growth-promoting factor (which is a critical micronutrient for cells to maintain normal functions, growth and reproduction) is used as a tumor target and is covalently connected onto a phthalocyanine zinc photosensitizer capable of being used for a photodynamic therapy, thus obtaining a third-generation anti-cancer photosensitizer for targeted therapy. Meanwhile, according to the conjugate, the biotin instead of a phthalocyanine zinc derivative acts a research object, human breast cancer cell MCF-7 and human embryo lung inoblast HELF act as subject cell lines respectively, a research regarding the in-vitro anti-cancer activity of the biotin is developed, and a prodrug suitable for a molecular targeted therapy is screened out, and a foundation is laid for applying the biotin instead of the phthalocyanine zinc derivative to the targeted therapy of cancers. The compound, namely the conjugate disclosed by the invention, is relatively simple in synthesis method, easily available in raw materials, low in cost, fewer in side reactions, relatively high in yield, easy to purify and beneficial for industrial production.

Rational design of biotin-disulfide-coumarin conjugates: A cancer targeted thiol probe and bioimaging

Biotin-disulfide-coumarin conjugates are designed and synthesized as novel fluorescent sensors for cancer targeted intracellular thiol imaging in living organisms. In vitro experiments disclose that probe 6 is preferentially taken up by biotin receptor-positive A549 tumor cells through receptor mediated endocytosis. The Royal Society of Chemistry.

A fluorescence off-on reporter for real time monitoring of gemcitabine delivery to the cancer cells

We present the design, synthesis, optical properties and in vitro biological assessments of the theranostic prodrug 6 in which a near IR fluorophore is conjugated with a cancer cell-directing biotin unit; further it is linked with the anti-cancer drug gemcitabine via a self-immolative spacer, a disulfide bond. The prodrug 6 is able to monitor drug delivery and cellular imaging.

Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of biotin-labeled (-)-ternatin, a potent fat-accumulation inhibitor against 3T3-L1 adipocytes
