Cas No.: 2183473-32-5
Sample solution is provided at 25 µL, 10mM.
BDP R6G maleimide is a high-performance, thiol-reactive fluorescent dye with an excitation maximum of 530nm and an emission maximum of 548nm, offering exceptional brightness and photostability. BDP R6G maleimide enables site-specific labeling of cysteine residues in proteins or other thiol-containing biomolecules via its maleimide functional group, which is a critical requirement for precise single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET) and other single-molecule detection techniques. BDP R6G maleimide is suitable for applications such as smFRET, single-molecule tracking (SMT), and fluorescence microscopy of proteins[1].

Experimental Protocol for Protein Labeling with BDP R6G Maleimide
This protocol is adapted from research data and provided for reference only. Adjustments may be necessary based on specific experimental requirements.
(1) Protein Solution Preparation: Dissolve the target protein in a degassed buffer free of thiol-containing compounds (concentration: 1–10mg/mL, pH=7.0–7.5). If the protein contains disulfide bonds, add a 10- to 100-fold molar excess of TCEP reducing agent and incubate at room temperature for 20–30 minutes.
(2) Dye Stock Solution Preparation: Prepare a 10mM stock solution of BDP R6G maleimide in anhydrous DMSO or DMF. Vortex to dissolve completely and protect from light (recommended to use immediately after preparation).
(3) Labeling Reaction: Add the dye stock solution to the protein solution at a dye-to-protein molar ratio of 10:1 to 20:1. Flush the reaction vial with inert gas, seal tightly, and incubate in the dark with gentle agitation for 2 hours at room temperature or overnight at 4°C.
(4) Purification and Degree of Labeling (DOL) Determination: Remove unreacted dye via gel filtration or HPLC. Measure the absorbance of the conjugate at 530nm (for BDP R6G maleimide) and 280nm (for the protein). Calculate the DOL using the correction formula: A₂₈₀(corrected) = A₂₈₀(measured)–(A₅₃₀×0.18).
Precautions:
(1) Perform all operations protected from light. Aliquot and store the dye stock solution at –20°C.
(2) The protein labeling buffer must be thoroughly degassed to prevent oxidation of thiol groups, which may reduce labeling efficiency.
(3) For your safety and health, please wear a lab coat and disposable gloves during operation.

| General tips | Please select the appropriate solvent to prepare the stock solution according to the
solubility of the product in different solvents; once the solution is prepared, please store it in
separate packages to avoid product failure caused by repeated freezing and thawing.Storage method
and period of the stock solution: When stored at -80°C, please use it within 6 months; when stored
at -20°C, please use it within 1 month. To increase solubility, heat the tube to 37°C and then oscillate in an ultrasonic bath for some time. |
