Bioconjugation is the process of coupling two biomolecules together in a covalent linkage. Common types of bioconjugation chemistry are amine coupling of lysine amino acid residues (typically through amine-reactive succinimidyl esters), sulfhydryl coupling of cysteine residues (via a sulfhydryl-reactive maleimide), and photochemically initiated free radical reactions, which have broader reactivity. The product of a bioconjugation reaction is a bioconjugate.
