D-(+)-Trehalose, Dihydrate
MP BiomedicalsTrehalose Dihydrate is an osmolyte, a chemical chaperone. It contains many properties that allow it to stabilize partially unfolded protein molecules and inhibit protein aggregation. It includes a low chemical reactivity, high glass transition temperature, existence of numerous polymorphs,…
-
L-Cysteine
MP BiomedicalsL-Cysteine is a proteinogenic amino acid incorporated into proteins as directed by the genetic code. The thiol-side chain participates in a variety of oxidation/reduction reactions within the cell. The side chain participates in the formation of β bonds that modulate the secondary and ternary…
