Zwitterionic detergent that combines features of bile salts and N-alkyl sulfobetaines. Better at solubilizing proteins than structurally-related carboxylic acid anions and is much more effective at breaking protein-protein interactions than either sodium cholate or TRITON® X-100 Detergent. Capable of solubilizing the opiate receptor to a state exhibiting reversible binding of opiates. Also, capable of disaggregating cytochrome P450 to its monomeric form without denaturation. Has a small micellar molecular weight and a high critical micellar concentration and can be removed from either gels or protein solutions by dialysis across a membrane. Aggregation number: 4-14.
Conductivity (1.0 M, 24°C): <100 µmhos.
