Application

O-(2-Nitrobenzyl)-L-tyrosine hydrochloride (NBY) is a tyrosine derivative with an o-nitrobenzyl photocage that can be cleaved with 365 nm irradiation. NBY has been genetically encoded into multiple proteins, providing an ″on switch″ for regulation. Photocaged amino acids such as these are also useful in the synthesis of photocleavable chemical tools for spatial and temporal control over released molecules in biological applications.

Product can be used with our line of photoreactors: Including Penn PhD (Z744035) & SynLED 2.0 (Z744080)

Antibodies have found applications in several fields, including, medicine, diagnostics, and nanotechnology, yet methods to modulate antibody-antigen binding using an external agent remain limited. Here, we have developed photoactive antibody fragments by genetic site-specific replacement of single tyrosine residues with
