A novel streptavidin variant with improved biotin binding characteristics allows stable monovalent detection of biotinylated targets for imaging applications and can be recombinantly fused to ...

Recent research by Rafael C. Bernardi at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign examines why a common tool in biotechnology -- the binding of streptavidin to biotin -- shows different mechanical ...

Biotin can amplify signals by forming complexes of large size with avidin or streptavidin. There are several techniques that use biotinylated secondary antibodies for this purpose, which are dealt ...

Receptor–ligand interactions are essential for biological function and their binding strength is commonly explained in terms of static lock-and-key models based on molecular complementarity. However, ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . An excess of biotin can result in false-negative allergen-specific IgE results during the one-step ...

The term biotinylation refers to the process of binding biotin to either a protein or a nucleic acid, or in some cases to another type of molecule. An antibody is one of these potential targets, a ...

In the rapidly evolving landscape of modern biotechnology, the precision of molecular tools determines the speed of medical breakthroughs. As a Global Leading Biotinylated Peptide Synthesis specialist ...

A team of researchers from the University at Buffalo in Amherst, NY have successfully engineered a novel variant of streptavidin that forms a stable monomer and is capable of monovalent biotin ...
