Recombinant streptavidin (Wild type)

Streptavidin is composed of a tetramer of four identical subunits, each of which can bind to biotin. That is, one molecule of streptavidin can bind to four molecules of biotin, and the binding force is very high (Kd~10-15). Compared with avidin, streptavidin has a lower isoelectric point and contains no sugar groups. Therefore, when used in antigen-antibody detection systems, its non-specific binding is much lower than that of avidin.

Streptavidin has good thermal stability and certain tolerance to some protein denaturants such as acids, urea, and SDS, which endows the biotin-streptavidin system with advantages such as high affinity, high sensitivity, good specificity, good stability, and signal amplification. It can be widely applied in fields such as immunology, molecular biology, and histochemistry.

This product retains the full-length sequence of natural streptavidin and has good solubility, with good solubility within a wide range of pH and ionic strength.
