N-Octyl-β-D-thioglucopyranoside
N-Octyl-β-D-thioglucopyranoside (OTG) is a mild, nonionic detergent with a thioglycosidic bond, ideal for solubilizing membrane proteins while preserving their native structure. This property facilitates protein crystallization for structural biology and enables functional reconstitution into lipid bilayers for in vitro assays.
