YIGSR-Lys(N3)

Description

YIGSR-Lys N3 is a peptide that can inhibit the tumour growth and metastasis of leukaemic cells. YIGSR blocks the cellular binding to laminin I via a 67-kDa laminin-binding protein, and inhibits shear-induced increase in eNOS expression of laminin cells. YIGSR-Lys N3 is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Azide group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction CuAAc with molecules containing Alkyne groups. It can also undergo strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition SPAAC reactions with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups.
