Thermo Scientific Pierce L-Photo-Leucine is an analog of L-leucine that can be incorporated into proteins during synthesis and then light-activated to covalently crosslink interacting proteins in cells.

Features of L-Photo-Leucine:

In vivo labeling—incorporate photo-reactive group into proteins using normal cellular machinery of live cells
In vivo crosslinking—find interacting proteins in the native cellular environment
Increased specificity—crosslink interacting proteins correctly positioned at their interfaces within protein interaction domains
Efficient recovery—90% protein recovery in cell lysates after crosslinking
Compatible—crosslink proteins expressed in a wide variety of cell lines, including HeLa, 293T, COS7, U2OS, A549, A431, HepG2, NIH 3T3 and C6
Easy to use—reagents are photo-stable under normal laboratory lighting, eliminating the need to work in the dark

Thermo Scientific L-Photo-Leucine is an analog of L-leucine that can be endogenously incorporated into the primary sequence of proteins during synthesis and then ultraviolet light (UV)-activated to covalently crosslink proteins within protein-protein interaction domains in their native environment within live cells. The powerful method enables both stable and transient protein interactions in cells to be studied and characterized without the use of completely foreign chemical crosslinkers and associated reagent solvents during the interaction experiment that can adversely aspects of the cell biology being studied.

When used in combination with specially formulated limiting media that is devoid of leucine, the photo-activatable derivative is treated like a naturally occurring amino acid by the protein synthesis machinery within the cell. As a result, it can be substituted for leucine in the primary sequence of proteins during catabolism and growth. Photo-leucine derivatives contain diazirine rings that activate when exposed to UV light to become reactive intermediates that form covalent bonds with nearby protein side chains and backbones. Naturally associating binding partners within the cell can be instantly trapped by photoactivation of the diazirine-containing proteins in the cultured cells. Crosslinked protein complexes can be detected by decreased mobility on SDS-PAGE followed by western blot detection, size exclusion chromatography, sucrose density gradient sedimentation or mass spectrometry.

常见问题解答 (FAQ)

Apart from proteins, will the Photoreactive Amino Acids crosslink to other molecules?

Photoreactive amino acids are incorporated into proteins during synthesis; but upon UV activation, they can crosslink to other biomolecules within proximity.

How stable are the Photoreactive Amino Acids in DMEM-LM?

Long-term stability of the photoreactive amino acids in media has not been determined but should be comparable to their natural analogs, if protected from light. For best results, store the photoreactive amino acids at -20°C as a dry compound. Just before use, add the photoreactive amino acids to the minimal volume of DMEM-LM supplemented with dialyzed serum.

How long do I need to incubate the Photoreactive Amino Acids with my cells?

Incubate the photoreactive amino acids in DMEM-LM with cells for 24 hours. For proteins with high turnover, a minimum incubation of 8 hours is needed for detectable crosslinking levels. Incubation for longer than 24 hours might significantly affect cell growth or viability.

My cells will not grow in DMEM, what other type of culture media can be used with the Photoreactive Amino Acids?

Some cells types can be adapted to grow in DMEM before using the DMEM-LM supplemented with the photoreactive amino acids. Currently we do not offer any other leucine- and methionine-depleted culture medium.

Can I use the Photoreactive Amino Acids to crosslink peptides?

Peptides can be synthesized using the N-termini-protected (Boc or Fmoc) photoreactive amino acid derivatives.
