DiAzKs
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
DiAzKs (H-L-Photo-lysine) is a diazirine-containing lysine amino acid and is a photo-cross-linker. DiAzKs can site-selective incorporated into proteins and is used to crosslink protein-protein interactions in vitro and in living cells. DiAzKs acts as a UV light-activated photo-crosslinking probe.

Biological Activity
Photo-lysine, which is readily incorporated into proteins by native mammalian translation machinery, can be used to capture and identify proteins that recognize lysine post-translational modifications (PTMs), including 'readers' and 'erasers' of histone modifications[2].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Solvent & Solubility
H2O : 5 mg/mL (18.36 mM; Need ultrasonic)
DMSO : 2 mg/mL (7.34 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, 6 months; -20°C, 1 month (protect from light). When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months. When stored at -20°C, please use it within 1 month.
* Note: If you choose water as the stock solution, please dilute it to the working solution, then filter and sterilize it with a 0.22 μm filter before use.
