Cysteine thiol probe
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Cysteine Thiol Probe is a thiol-based probe designed to label electrophilic natural products. Cysteine Thiol Probe possesses each of the characteristics of an ideal pharmacophore probe, and has a chromophore. Cysteine Thiol Probe is capable of engaging enone-, β-lactam-, and β-lactone-based electrophilic metabolites.

Biological Activity
Cysteine Thiol Probe (Probe 1) reacts much more readily with β-lactam- and β-lactone-based electrophilic natural products, and its reactivity with epoxide-based electrophilic natural products is poor. And probe 2 reacts much faster with epoxide-containing natural products. This orthogonal reactivity allows them to be employed in extracts simultaneously. Since Cysteine Thiol Probe is brominated and probe 2 is chlorinated, the isotopic patterns of labeled natural products point toward their structural origin. Competition experiments using Cysteine Thiol Probe and 2 indicated that brominated Cysteine Thiol Probe reacted exclusively with the β-lactam in penicillin G and the β-lactone in salinosporamide A while chlorinated probe 2 alone reacted with the epoxide in salinamide A[1].

Solvent & Solubility
DMSO : 250 mg/mL (785.69 mM; Need ultrasonic; Hygroscopic DMSO has a significant impact on the solubility of product, please use newly opened DMSO)
Please refer to the solubility information to select the appropriate solvent. Once prepared, please aliquot and store the solution to prevent product inactivation from repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Storage method and period of stock solution: -80°C, 2 years; -20°C, 1 year. When stored at -80°C, please use it within 2 years. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 year.

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (6.54 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (20.8 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
