Insights into Transient Dimerisation of Carnitine/Acylcarnitine Carrier (SLC25A20) from Sarkosyl/PAGE, Cross-Linking Reagents, and Comparative Modelling Analysis [PDF]
The carnitine/acylcarnitine carrier (CAC) is a crucial protein for cellular energy metabolism, facilitating the exchange of acylcarnitines and free carnitine across the mitochondrial membrane, thereby enabling fatty acid β-oxidation and oxidative ...

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.

Ligand-induced movements of inner transmembrane helices of Glut1 revealed by chemical cross-linking of di-cysteine mutants. [PDF]
The relative orientation and proximity of the pseudo-symmetrical inner transmembrane helical pairs 5/8 and 2/11 of Glut1 were analyzed by chemical cross-linking of di-cysteine mutants.

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

Preparation of Polyrotaxane Fibers. Part II: Tensile Properties of Polyrotaxane Fibers Treated with Two Cross-linking Reagents [PDF]
Polyrotaxane fibers prepared with wet spinning of polyrotaxane consisting of poly(ethylene glycol) and cyclodextrins were cross-linked with two different cross-linking reagents, i.e., divinyl sulfone (DVS) and ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE), to ...
