Other Notes
Affinity label for cysteine residues[4][3]; Cross-linker between nucleic acids and proteins[1]
Packaging
10, 50, 500 g in glass bottle
Application
Bromopyruvic acid was used in the synthesis of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acids[2].
General description
Bromopyruvic acid is an affinity label for cysteine residues[4][3]†. It acts as cross-linker between nucleic acids and proteins[1]. Kinetics of inactivation of pancreatic ribonuclease A by bromopyruvic acid has been investigated[5].
