    Product Description

    Phosphine biotin is a labeling reagent that selectively reacts with azido groups on modified proteins through the Staudinger ligation reaction. Modified proteins can be detected using common avidin-based biochemical techniques in whole cells or by blotting experiments following SDS-PAGE. For example, phosphine-biotin has been used successfully in conjunction with DAz-1 or DAz-2 to label and detect sulfenic acid sites in proteins.1,2
