Description
Dithiothreitol (DTT), also known as Cleland’s reagent, is a powerful reducing agent used in molecular biology and biochemistry to break disulfide bonds in proteins and prevent their re-formation. It is commonly used to maintain thiol groups in a reduced state, which is crucial for protein stability and activity, and is used in applications like preparing samples for SDS-PAGE and for the isolation and purification of enzymes
