Chemical Structure:
DL-Dithiothreitol Application:
DL-Dithiothreitol commonly known as DTT, is a potent thiol-based reducing agent used in protein and nucleic acid research. It prevents oxidation by breaking disulfide bonds, maintaining biomolecules in a reduced and active state. Key Application Areas:
1. Protein Sample Preparation
Essential for reducing disulfide bridges before SDS-PAGE or Western blot.
Maintains protein solubility and activity during purification.
2. Molecular Biology & Enzymology
Protects enzymes and nucleic acids from oxidation.
Used in RT-PCR, RNA extraction, and enzyme stabilization.
3. Biotech & Pharmaceutical R&D
Applied in protein refolding protocols and structure-function analysis.
Often included in buffer systems for biochemical assays.
