DBCO-PEG36-TFP ester is an amine-reactive, labeling reagent used to modify proteins, antibodies, and other amine-containing biopolymers. The hydrophilic PEG spacer arm provides a long and flexible connection that minimizes steric hindrance involved with ligation to complementary azide-containing molecules. The TFP ester is less susceptible to undergo hydrolysis compared to the NHS ester. Reagent grade, for research purpose. Please contact us for GMP-grade inquiries.

Introduction
Usages: Peptone obtained by enzymatic digestion of selected animal tissues, widely used in the preparation of microbiological culture media.
Double-Strand Specific dsDNase (dsDNase) is ideal for fast and effective removal of contaminating DNA from PCR master mixes.
Taq polymerases are commonly contaminated by bacterial DNA. This is a problem in PCR based bacterial typing and detection as it might cause false positive results. The unique properties of dsDNase make it suited for removal of contaminating DNA from PCR master mixes prior to addition of DNA template.
In figure 1, a PCR master mix was treated with different amounts of dsDNase before performing a qPCR to measure the contaminating bacterial DNA in the master mix. ArcticZymes dsDNase effectively removed contaminating DNA below known levels of the assay detection limits.
The dsDNase from Arctic shrimp (Pandalus borealis) is recombinantly produced in Pichia pastoris. It cleaves phosphodiester linkages in DNA to yield oligonucleotides with 5’-phosphate and 3’-hydroxyl termini.
The specific activity is estimated to be 30 times higher than that of bovine DNase I. In the presence of magnesium as only divalent cation and using oligos as a substrate, the activity towards dsDNA is 5000-fold higher than towards ssDNA.
The unique double strand-specificity allows specific degradation of dsDNA while leaving shorter ssDNA as primers and probes essentially intact. Easy inactivation by moderate heat (65°C) allows addition of DNA intended for analysis directly after removal of contaminating DNA.
Can be heat-inactivated by moderate heat treatment (65°C for 15 minutes)
Producing 5′-phospho-oligonucleotide products

The dsDNase effectively removes contaminated DNA:
A PCR master mix was preincubated with various concentrations of dsDNase. After treatment, no DNA was amplified in non-template controls.
Properties
Specificity towards double-stranded DNA
Nucleic acid specificity has been tested towards double- and single-stranded DNA and RNA oligonucleotides. The specificity of dsDNase towards the substrate has been measured using 15-mer oligonucleotides with FAM at 5′ and DarkQuencher® 3′ (Eurogentec). The fluorescence is proportional to enzyme activity. Assay conditions: 25 mM Tris pH 7.5, 5 mM MgCl2, and 2 μM oligonucleotide.

Cluster of differentiation 44 (CD44) is a glycoprotein receptor for hyaluronic acid, which plays a fundamental role in cellular adhesion, stromal binding, migration, and cell-cell interactions. Studies have suggested that the CD44-hyaluronate interaction is central to tumor invasiveness. Positive staining with Anti-CD44 is implicated in a multitude of different cancer types, including breast, prostatic, renal cell, colonic, hepatocellular, and genitourinary carcinomas, as well as Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, metastatic melanoma, gastric cancer, and some soft tissue tumors. It has also been demonstrated that there is a positive correlation between tumor progression and increased expression of CD44v, a high molecular weight CD44 isoform that has been described in epithelial cells. Given the expression of CD44 in a wide range of cancers, the most practical application of CD44 immunostaining is its use in discriminating between urothelial transitional cell carcinoma in situ from non-neoplastic changes in the urothelium.
