Photocleavable linkers are advantageous over the common linkers because they could be cleaved without using reagents. A novel photocleavable linker with an α-thioacetophenone moiety has been developed. This linker, which can be cleaved upon irradiation at 365 nm via the Norrish type II reaction, is applicable to a protein affinity purification system, allowing target proteins to be effectively isolated. This novel linker would serve as an effective tool in chemical biology.
光可裂解连接子比普通连接子更具优势,因为它们无需使用试剂即可裂解。一种带有α-硫代苯乙酮部分的新型光可裂解连接子已被开发出来。这种连接子在365nm光照下可通过Norrish II型反应裂解,适用于蛋白质亲和纯化系统,能有效分离目标蛋白质。这种新型连接子将成为化学生物学中的一种有效工具。
