DTT is used as a reducing or "deprotecting" agent for thiolated DNA. The terminal sulfur atoms of thiolated DNA have a tendency to form dimers in solution, especially in the presence of oxygen.

Thermo Scientific DTT (DL-Dithiothreitol; Clelands reagent) is used to stabilize enzymes and other proteins, which possess free sulfhydryl groups. It has been shown to restore activity lost by oxidation …

Dithiothreitol (DTT) is extensively applied in chemical peptide synthesis and biochemical preparations of thiol proteins. It is also used in protein chemistry studies, such as protein folding and enzyme activity. …

DTT is used in the liquefication of sputum recovered from asthma patients. Two male patients with late stage (uremic) infantile nephropathic cystinosis were treated by mouth with the reducing agent DTT, …

DTT operates through thiol-disulfide exchange reactions. It possesses two thiol (-SH) groups that can donate electrons to disulfide bonds (S-S) in proteins, reducing them to free thiol groups.

Mar 19, 2026 · Dithiothreitol (DTT), also known as Cleland's reagent, is a small-molecule redox reagent . Its oxidized form is a disulfide-bonded 6-membered ring. DTT has an epimeric ('sister') compound, …

Mar 22, 2024 · DTT is a very strong reducing agent, and its reducing power is largely due to the conformational stability of its oxidized six-membered ring (containing a disulfide bond).

DTT is less pungent and is less toxic than 2-mercaptoethanol. Typically, a seven fold lower concentration of DTT (100 mM) is needed than is used for 2-mercaptoethanol (5% v/v, 700 mM).

Dithiothreitol (DTT) is frequently utilized in biochemical preparations of thiol proteins and chemical peptide synthesis. DTT is also used in protein chemistry research on the folding of proteins and …
