Sulfo cy5 maleimide

Manufactured by Lumiprobe
Sourced in Germany

Sulfo-Cy5 maleimide is a fluorescent labeling reagent that can be used to conjugate biomolecules such as proteins, peptides, and other thiol-containing compounds. It contains a sulfo-NHS ester group that reacts with primary amines and a maleimide group that reacts with sulfhydryl groups.

HEPES (4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid), sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) agarose, streptavidin agarose beads, isopropyl β-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) and ampicillin were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich. The polymer wrapping the QD was synthesized according to our previous study.28 (link) Oligonucleotides were bought from IDT Technologies. SulfoCy5 maleimide was bought from Lumiprobe, while Texas Red maleimide was bought from Vector Laboratories. HEPES 1× is a solution of 25 mM of HEPES and 150 mM of NaCl, adjusted to pH 7.6.

The recombinant lactaptin analogs RL2, Т1_RL and Т2_RL were isolated from E. coli and purified according to a protocol for the isolation of RL2 (5 (link)).
To label RL2, T1_RL and T2_RL with sulfo-Cy5, 0.2 mM of each protein was incubated with 1.25 mM of the fluorescent dye sulfo-Cy5 maleimide (Ex/Em=646/662; Lumiprobe GmbH, Hannover, Germany) in Tris-HCl buffer (pH 5.5) for 4 h at 25°С. The purification of the conjugates RL2-Cy5, T1_RL-Cy5 and T2_RL-Cy5 was performed by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography on a С18 column using a Milichrom A-02 chromatograph (EcoNova, Novosibirsk, Russia) with acetonitrile-water as a mobile phase.

Protein Labeling with Fluorescent Dyes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To label the proteins with dye, a 1:1 mixture of sulfo-Cy3 maleimide (Lumiprobe) and sulfo-Cy5 maleimide (Lumiprobe) was added to the proteins at a protein:fluorophore molar ratio of 1:10. The labeling reaction was performed at 4 °C for 2 h. The labeled proteins were then diluted and added to anti-FLAG resin, and the excess free dyes were effectively removed by extensive washing29 (link). The proteins were eluted by elution buffer and concentrated to 0.3–0.4 mg ml−1 (Supplementary Fig. S2b).

Site-specific labeling of ubiquitin and Ufd1

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
MC-ubiquitin and its derivatives were labeled with Cy3 or Cy5 dyes at the N-terminal cysteine. First, 50 μM of MC-ubiquitin constructs were incubated with 1 mM TCEP to reduce cysteines and improve labeling efficiency. Next, a 10-fold excess of sulfo-Cy3-maleimide or sulfo-Cy5-maleimide (Lumiprobe) was added and labeling was carried out for 30 min at room temperature in buffer (25 mM HEPES pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl). The reaction was quenched with 5 mM DTT and subjected to size-exclusion chromatography with a Superdex 75 increase 10/300 column equilibrated in GF buffer. Protein concentration was quantified based on Cy3 or Cy5 absorbance. Ufd1 was conjugated to Cy5 under similar conditions as ubiquitin, except the cysteine for maleimide labeling was incorporated in place of Arg64 located in the UT3 domain. Our labeling is site-specific, because the two native cysteines of Ufd1 (Cys27 and Cys186), which appear buried in an NMR structure, were not amenable to labeling when we reacted Cy5 with wild-type Ufd1 lacking the R64C mutation. Protein concentration was quantified based on Cy5 absorbance.

Lyophilized
PRE-h-36, PRE-h-58, and PRE-h-41 were dissolved at 1.5 mg/mL in PBS140 pH
7.0 in 500 μL. 10-fold molar excess freshly prepared TCEP (Sigma-Aldrich)
was added and incubated for >15 min at room temperature. Next,
10-fold
molar excess sulfo-Cy5 maleimide (Lumiprobe GmbH) sulfo-Cy3 maleimide
(Lumiprobe GmbH) and FITC maleimide (Lumiprobe GmbH) from a 10 mg/mL
stock in DMSO (Sigma-Aldrich) was added dropwise to the proteins to
yield Cy5-PRE-h-36, Cy3-PRE-h-58,
and FITC-PRE-h-41. The reaction mixture was wrapped
in aluminum foil and incubated in a rocker for 2 h at room temperature
followed by overnight incubation at 4 °C. Excess dye was quenched
by addition of 1 mM DTT and extensively removed by multiple rounds
of dilution of the labeled conjugate with PBS140 followed
by 10 kDa spin concentrations (Amicon), until no absorbance could
be measured by UV–vis in the eluate.

Cysteine Labeling of TmrAB Protein

The single natural cysteine in wild-type TmrAB at position 416 in TmrA was labeled by
maleimide chemistry. Therefore, TmrAB was incubated with sulfoCy5 maleimide (Lumiprobe) in
PBS pH 6.8 for 1 h at room temperature. A protein concentration of 1 mg/mL and 20-fold
molar excess of sulfoCy5 maleimide were used. Subsequently, the reaction was quenched with
1 mM β-mercaptoethanol. Dye excess was removed via size-exclusion
spin columns (Bio-Rad) followed by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
