Diethyl malonimidate dihydrochloride (Cat No.: M053414) is a bifunctional crosslinking reagent featuring two imidate groups derived from malonic acid and stabilized as a dihydrochloride salt. It is commonly used in biochemistry and molecular biology for crosslinking proteins and nucleic acids, particularly through reaction with primary amines on lysine residues. This water-soluble compound enables the formation of stable covalent bonds between biomolecules, aiding in structural and interaction studies. Its short spacer arm and reactive imidate groups make it ideal for forming intramolecular or intermolecular links.
