Covalent cross‐linking of proteins without chemical reagents [PDF]
AbstractA facile method for the formation of zero‐length covalent cross‐links between protein molecules in the lyophilized state without the use of chemical reagents has been developed. The cross‐linking process is performed by simply sealing lyophilized protein under vacuum in a glass vessel and heating at 85°C for 24 h.

PhoX – an IMAC-enrichable Crosslinking Reagent [PDF]
AbstractChemical crosslinking mass spectrometry is rapidly emerging as a prominent technique to study protein structures. Structural information is obtained by covalently connecting peptides in close proximity by small reagents and identifying the resulting peptide pairs by mass spectrometry.

A new radioactive cross-linking reagent for studying the interactions of proteins. [PDF]
We have developed a photoactivable, heterobifunctional, reversible, radioactively labeled, chemical cross-linking reagent, 3-[(2-nitro-4-azidophenyl)-2-aminoethyldithio]-N-succinimidyl propionate, for studying the interactions of proteins in situ. When reacted in the dark with a purified protein, it forms a covalent derivative which can be purified and

The Signal Sequence Receptor Has a Second Subunit and IsPart of a Translocation Complex in the Endoplasmic Reticulum as Probed by Bifunctional Reagents [PDF]
Bifunctional cross-linking reagents were used to probe the protein environment in the ER membrane of the signal sequence receptor (SSR), a 34-kD integral membrane glycoprotein (Wiedmann, M., T. V. Kurzchalia, E. Hartmarm, and T. A. Rapoport. 1987. Nature

Mass Spectrometry Evidence for Cisplatin As a Protein Cross-Linking Reagent [PDF]
Cisplatin is a potent anticancer drug, which functions by cross-linking adjacent DNA guanine residues. However within 1 day of injection, 65-98% of the platinum in the blood plasma is protein-bound. It is generally accepted that cisplatin binds to methionine and histidine residues, but what is often underappreciated is that platinum from cisplatin has ...

Cleavage and cross-linking of proteins with osmium (VII) reagents. [PDF]
The specific cleavage of proteins following reaction with osmium tetroxide is slowed down by tertiary amines which are known to be good ligands for osmium. Bidentate ligands are more effective than monodentate ligands. These same ligands also promote an intermolecular cross-linking reaction.

Antigenic Properties of Fixed and Unfixed Particles of Some Cucumber Mosaic Virus Strains [PDF]
The virus particle of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) is unstable and degrades during and after virus preparation. For longterm storage, either 0.25% glutaraldehyde or 0.2% formaldehyde are used as protein cross-linking reagents for stabilising the antigenic
