TNS sodium  (Synonyms: 6-(p-Tolylamino)naphthalene-2-sulfonate sodium)

Cat. No.: HY-W250727 Purity: 99.97%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

TNS (6-(p-Tolylamino) naphthalene-2-sulfonate) sodium is a fluorescent probe used to detect the conformational state of proteins. TNS sodium binds to the central hydrophobic calyx of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) to form a 1:1 complex, which stabilizes the folded conformation of β-LG. TNS sodium shows weak fluorescent signals in aqueous solution, but its fluorescence intensity increases significantly upon binding to the hydrophobic domains of proteins, with the maximum excitation wavelength and maximum emission wavelength located at 321 nm and 446 nm, respectively.

Description

TNS (6-(p-Tolylamino) naphthalene-2-sulfonate) sodium is a fluorescent probe used to detect the conformational state of proteins. TNS sodium binds to the central hydrophobic calyx of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) to form a 1:1 complex, which stabilizes the folded conformation of β-LG. TNS sodium shows weak fluorescent signals in aqueous solution, but its fluorescence intensity increases significantly upon binding to the hydrophobic domains of proteins, with the maximum excitation wavelength and maximum emission wavelength located at 321 nm and 446 nm, respectively[1].

In Vitro

TNS (10 μM TNS, 10 μM β-LG; 298 K) sodium binds to purified bovine β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) at a distance of 2.5 nm from the Trp19 residue of β-LG at pH 7.0[1].
TNS (sodium) (25 μM TNS, 25 μM β-LG; incubated with 0-1.2 M NaCl) binding to purified bovine β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) at pH 7.0 is disrupted by increasing ionic strength (via NaCl), with the most significant disruption occurring at NaCl concentrations between 0 M and 0.25 M[1].
TNS (10 μM TNS, 10 μM β-LG; 20 min) sodium binding to purified bovine β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) at pH 7.0 stabilizes its fold, increasing the guanidine hydrochloride concentration required for unfolding from a midpoint of 2.3 M to 3.9 M[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
