SDS | USER MANUAL |
CellMosaic® has designed this personalized antibody-oligo conjugation kit to work with any antibody and an amine-modified oligo. The user supplies their own antibody and amine-modified oligo (preferably a C6 amino modified oligo), which is readily available from many commercial oligo suppliers. Using the kit components, the user converts the amine-oligo to a maleimide-oligo (Step 1A in Scheme 1). Using the kit components, the customer converts some of the surface amines of the antibody to free thiol groups (Step 1B in Scheme 1), followed by reaction of the maleimide-modified oligo to generate the conjugates (Step 2 in Scheme 1). If there are any unreacted thiols on the antibody, they are subsequently capped (Step 3 in Scheme 1). The final conjugate is desalted and buffer exchanged with PBS buffer.
This kit provides materials to perform one or three antibody oligo conjugations. Scale of the reaction: 0.25-1 mg antibody (protein content).
Note to previous users: If you purchased this kit previously, the current one is an upgraded and improved kit with slightly different components and workflow as the first and second-generation kit. This kit has multiple configurations for various lengths of oligos and can be used to conjugate 4−15 nano-mole (nmol) of oligo. Table 1 provides the catalog numbers for various kit configurations.

Requirement for antibody:
- Amount: 0.25-1 mg IgG needed per reaction
- Preferably >90% pure by gel electrophoresis
Requirement for amine-oligo:
- Amount: 4-15 nmol oligo content as measured by UV
- HPLC purified with amino-oligo content ≥90% by C18 HPLC.
- ≥5-mer. (oligos longer than 60-mer may result in lower loading and high impurities)
Note: You can purchase HPLC purified C6 amino-modified oligo from standard oligo manufacturers up to 90-mer length for this kit preparation. It is highly recommended that customers analyze and quantify oligos prior to using them.
