General description

N-(5-Fluoresceinyl) maleimide, also known as fluorescein-5-maleimide (FM), is a fluorescent derivatization reagent. The pH during the derivatization reaction plays a critical role.

Application

N-(5-Fluoresceinyl) maleimide or fluorescein-5-maleimide is used as a fluorescent biosensor to detect nanoparticles.

N-(5-Fluoresceinyl) maleimide (5-FM) is used to fluorescence label molecules such as proteins and peptides via their thiol groups.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

In gram-negative bacteria, transporters belonging to the resistance-nodulation-cell division (RND) superfamily of proteins are responsible for intrinsic multidrug resistance. Haemophilus influenzae, a gram-negative pathogen causing respiratory diseases in humans and animals, constitutively produces the multidrug efflux transporter AcrB (AcrB(HI)). Similar

Proton transport across biological membranes is a key step of the energy conservation machinery in living organisms, and it has been proposed that the membrane itself plays an important role in this process. In the present study we have investigated

The AcrB trimeric multidrug efflux transporter of Escherichia coli pumps out a very wide spectrum of compounds. Although minocycline and doxorubicin have been cocrystallized within the large binding pocket in the periplasmic domain of the binding protomer, nothing is known
