    Product Description

    12-azido Lauric acid is a clickable form of lauric acid (Item Nos. 10006626 | 45444). It has been used as a probe to study protein fatty acylation and in the synthesis of proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs).1,2 12-azido Lauric acid is active against C. albicans, C. neoformans, and S. cerevisiae (MICs = 1.3, 0.16, and 0.3 mM, respectively) and inhibits the replication of HIV-1 in vitro.3,4
