StreptaClick® Precision for Click Chemistry

StreptaClick® Precision — Monovalently Binding Streptavidin for Click Chemistry

Customize StreptaClick® to match your precise requirements. Our product range includes the novel StreptaClick® Precision – 1 Azide molecule, specifically designed for Copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) or copper-free Strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) click chemistry. This enables the precise attachment of exactly one molecule, catering to applications requiring a 1:1 ratio of reporter to binder. The azide reactive group provides flexibility to attach your biomolecules via different chemistries, adapting StreptaClick® Precision to complement your assays, target-seeking systems, or production enhancements. Furthermore, StreptaClick® Precision maintains its remarkable biotin-binding capability and effortlessly connects to any biotinylated antibody or protein via its two clustered biotin binding sites in cis-position. The dual binding sites ensure biotin binding is not blocked by bulky molecules such as oligonucleotides.

Possible applications include antibody-oligonucleotide conjugate based methods such as immuno-PCR, immuno-RCA, Proximity Ligation Assay, Proximity Extension Assay as well as others such as  prototyping antibody-drug conjugates or targeting antibodies conjugated to delivery systems such as lipid nanoparticles or extracelluar vesicles.

Should you require a greater ratio of reporters per binder we are currently developing StreptaClick® Precision versions with exactly three or seven reactive groups.

StreptaClick® Precision - a cis-divalent streptavidin primed for Click Chemistry

Introducing StreptaClick® Precision – 1 Azide, your ultimate tool for precise protein labeling. Our engineered cis-divalent yet monovalently binding streptavidin features exactly one azide functional group strategically attached with maximum distance from the dual biotin binding sites to minimize the risk of bulky reporter molecules obscuring biotin-streptavidin binding reaction. This offers unparalleled control in your labeling process.

StreptaClick® Precision differs from our previous StreptaClick® Color and StreptaClick® HRP molecules in that it has been redesigned with dual biotin binding sites clustered in cis-position.  This design still exhibits monovalent binding properties to antibodies while conserving its native binding affinity to biotin, ensuring unmatched specificity in molecular interactions. In early experiments we observed that monovalent StreptaClick® could have its biotin binding obscured by bulky molecules such as oligonucleotides, a problem that has now been solved with StreptaClick® Precision.

How it works

With StreptaClick® Precision, the labeling process becomes seamless.

Easily attach the azide labeled StreptaClick® Precision molecule to your reporter molecule of choice via click chemistry. The azide functionalization enables either Copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) or copper-free Strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) click chemistry, ensuring accurate and specific labeling in many different types of experiments. We primarily recommend SPAAC with DBCO- functionalized reporters, but alkyne functionalized reporters also work well.

Achieve high conjugation efficiency

Conjugating reporters to StreptaClick® Precision via CuAAC or SPAAC click chemistry typically results in 90-100% labeling efficiency with only 1.3X excess of reporter to StreptaClick® molecules.

Attach StreptaClick® Precision conjugate to any biotinylated antibody or surface

After the click chemistry reaction, add the newly formed StreptaClick® Precision construct to your biotinylated protein or surface of interest for near immediate conjugation. We also have a convenient biotinylation kit available for purchase, BiotinPureTM, if you lack access to biotinylated antibodies.

This innovation grants you exquisite control over labeling positions and ratios, enabling detailed exploration of protein behaviors, interactions, and localization.

The interaction is visualized via immunofluorescence imaging by hybridization of an antisense oligo with a 647nm fluorochrome to StreptaClick® Precision – 1 Oligo. Other possible readouts for antibody-oligonucleotide conjugate based methods include q-PCR and DNA sequencing.

The BiotinPure™ Antibody Biotinylation Kit is a complete kit for easy biotinylation of antibodies at room temperature within 1 hour. The kit uses amine/ester chemistry to attach 2-3 biotins per antibody and includes a purification wash step that removes unreacted free biotin from the final biotinylated antibody solution. The antibodies to be biotinylated should be free from other proteins, such as BSA. The BiotinPure™ Antibody Biotinylation Kit is designed for use with StreptaClick® reagents. The biotinylated antibodies may also be used for other applications. Cat. no. 9000051-1 Contact us for further information

StreptaClick® Precision

400 3694 
StreptaClick® Precision is a modified streptavidin developed for site-specific conjugation with a defined number of attachment groups for click chemistry - currently exactly one azide for the possibility of achieving a 1:1 ratio of reporter to binder. Furthermore, StreptaClick® Precision has a unique cis-divalent design with maximum separation of the site for conjugation and biotin binding. This design makes StreptaClick® Precision ideal for attachment of bulky molecules without affecting the biotin binding affinity and without causing aggregation when mixed with biotinylated proteins as it still exhibits monovalent binding properties. StreptaClick® Precision is currently provided with a single azide group for either Copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) or copper-free Strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) click chemistry. We observe the highest efficiencies when utilizing SPAAC to react azide to dibenzylcyclooctyne (DBCO), especially when clicking oligonucleotides to StreptaClick® Precision. Off-the shelf StreptaClick® Precision constructs are also available. These are pre-conjugated with a single 14 mer DNA oligonucleotide or a single bright fluorochrome (488 nm or 647 nm). StreptaClick® Precision with a DBCO group for copper free click chemistry as well as pre-conjugated flurorescent proteins (phycoerythrin), enzymes (ex. horseradish peroxidase (HRP)) are in development. To achieve greater reporter to binder ratios we are also developing versions with exactly three and seven reactive groups. External partners have successfully attached other molecules, including lipid nanoparticles (LNPs). Contact us for further information Select your StreptaClick® Precision Kit:
