General description
Acetylation of bovine serum albumin particularly modifies lysine (Lys) residues with elevated frequency, with lesser degrees of modification of serine (Ser) and threonine (Thr) residues. MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry analysis of acetylated BSA has indicated an increased MW of about 3000, compared to native BSA (Ostatná, V. et al., J. Electroanalytical Chem., 821, 97-103 (2018)).. This acetylation process also derivatizes similar amino acid residues in any trace contaminating nucleases in the BSA, to inactivate that nuclease activity. This makes acetylated BSA useful in molecular biology applications where trace nuclease activity must be minimized.
Application
- In cDNA library preparation (Hafner, M. et al., RNA, 17(9), 1697-1712 (2011))
- As a blocking agent with streptavidin beads used for capture of biotinylated RNA (Winz, M.-L. et al., Nat. Protocol., 12(1), 122-149 (2017))
