Iodoacetamide is a thiol reagent; alkylating reagent for cysteine and histidine residues in proteins. In the alkylation reaction, it reacts with histidine (such as in RNase), methionine and sulfhydryl groups of many proteins. Iodoacetamide can react with low molecular weight thiol compounds such as…
