N-Biotinyl-6-aminohexanoic acid  (Synonyms: N-(+)-Biotinyl-6-aminohexanoic acid)

N-Biotinyl-6-aminohexanoic acid (N-(+)-Biotinyl-6-aminohexanoic acid) can be used to perform biotinylation^[1].

Synthesis of p-nitrophenyl N-acetyllactosaminide with β-D-galactosidase, chemical reduction of the p-nitrophenyl group, and sialylation with sialyltransferase. The p-aminophenyl glycosides are then successfully biotin-labeled through the coupling with N-(+)-biotinyl-6- aminohexanoic acid to afford biotinylated oligosaccharides with an aminohexanosyl group and phenyl group as the spacers between the biotin and glycan^[1].
The SERS (surface-enhanced Raman scattering) of cyclohexyl isocyanide that silver nanoparticles modified with N-(+)-biotinyl-6-aminocaproic acid and cyclohexyl isocyanide can be anchored on a separate biotinylated substrate via the avidin-biotin interaction^[2].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
