Description
- Dithiothreitol is useful for stabilizing sulfhydryl containing enzymes.
- Effective in sample buffers for reducing protein disulfide bonds prior to SDS-PAGE.
- DTT can also be used for reducing the disulfide bridge of the cross-linker N,N'-bis(acryloyl)cystamine to break apart the matrix of a polyacrylamide gel.
- DTT is less pungent and is less toxic than 2-mercaptoethanol.
- DL-Dithiothreitol is also known as Clelands reagent; Protective agent for sulfhydryl groups (-SH). Quantitatively reduces disulfides (-S-S- to -SH).
- In this reaction the DTT is oxidized to the cyclic disulfide which ensures the reduction of other disulfides in solution.
