Sulfo-Cy3 Azide is a water-soluble fluorogenic dye featuring an azide group, which facilitates Click Chemistry. It is suitable for labeling delicate molecules, including proteins. The azide group allows it to participate in copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with alkyne-containing molecules, as well as ring strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups.
- Water-soluble fluorogenic dye: allows for use in aqueous environments.
- Azide group: enables Click Chemistry reactions.
- Versatile labeling: can be used to label sensitive molecules such as proteins.
- Compatible with CuAAc: reacts with alkyne groups in copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition.
- Compatible with SPAAC: undergoes ring strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition with DBCO or BCN groups.
