Copper (Cu(I))-catalyzed Azide-Alkyne Click chemistry reactions (CuAAC) describe the reaction of an Azide-functionalized molecule A with a terminal Alkyne-functionalized molecule B that results in a stable conjugate A-B via a Triazole moiety.Since terminal Alkynes are fairly unreactive towards Azides, the efficiency of CuAAC reactions strongly depends on the presence of a metal catalyst such as copper ions in the +1 oxidation state (Cu(I)).
Different copper sources, reduction reagents and Cu(I) stabilizing ligands are available however, for most bioconjugation applications the combination of the Cu(II) salt CuSO4 as copper source, a water-soluble Cu(I) stabilizing ligand such as BTTAA and sodium ascorbate as a reduction reagent is recommended.[1-3]
The use of Picolyl-Azide reagents instead of conventional Azide reagents can further increase the reaction efficiency and decrease the required final CuSO4 concentration due to the internal copper chelating moiety.[4]The set-up of a CuAAC reaction is based on the following general three-step procedure:
- Prepare a mix of Alkyne- and Azide functionalized molecules in an appropriate reaction buffer.
- Prepare a CuSO4: Cu(I)-ligand premix, add it to the Azide- Alkyne solution and mix briefly.
- Add Na-Ascorbate as reduction reagent at last to start the reaction.
The CuAAC Cell Reaction Buffer Kit (THPTA based) provides sufficient amounts to perform 50 CuAAC experiments à 500 μl using 2 mM CuSO4, 10 mM THPTA and 100 mM Na-Ascorbate in 100 mM Na-Phosphate reaction buffer.
A general protocol for labeling of fixed and permeabilized cells containing metabolically functionalized Alkyne- or Azide-modified biomolecules is outlined below (see 3.) however, individual optimization might be required for different CUAAC labeling experiments as well as for critical reaction parameter e.g. final CuSO4 concentration, CuSO4:THPTA ratio, detection reagent concentration.
Hong et al.[2] and Presolski et al.[1] provide useful background information on the influence of CuSO4 concentration, CuSO4: ligand ratio and reaction buffer type that may be used as a starting point if optimization is required.
2. Preparation of stock solutions
The concentration of stock solutions (2.1 to 2.3) is suitable to prepare 500 μl assays containing 2 mM CuSO4, 10 mM THPTA and 100 mM Na-Ascorbate (see 3.3 and 3.4, respectively). Adjustments might be required if different assay volumes or final compound concentrations are used.
2.1 THPTA stock solution (Cu(I) stabilizing ligand)
- Add an appropriate amount of ddH2O (Tab. 1), vortex until the compound is completely dissolved and spin down briefly.
- Prepare aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw-cycles and store at -20 °C.
- The solution is stable up to 1 year at -20 °C.

THPTA Concentration of stock solution Amount of ddH2O 25 mg 250 mM 230 μl 2.2 CuSO4 stock solution (copper source)
- Add an appropriate amount of ddH2O (Tab. 2), vortex until the compound is completely dissolved and spin down briefly.
- Prepare aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw-cycles and store at -20 °C.
- The solution is stable up to 1 year at -20 °C.
Table 2 Volume of ddH2O required for a 100 mM CuSO4 stock solution.
CuSO4 Concentration of stock solution Amount of ddH2O 10 mg 100 mM 628 μl 2.3 Na-Ascorbate stock solution (reduction reagent)
- Add an appropriate amount of ddH2O (Tab. 3), vortex until the compound is completely dissolved and spin down briefly.
- Prepare aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw-cycles and store at -20 °C.
- The solution is stable up to 1 year at -20 °C.
Please note: Do not use solutions that appear brown. Freshly prepared, fully functional Na-Ascorbate solutions are colorless to slightly yellow and turn brown upon oxidization thereby losing their reduction capability.

Na-Ascorbate Concentration of stock solution Amount of ddH2O 200 mg 1 M 1010 μl 2.4 (Picolyl)-Azide detection reagent stock solution
- (Picolyl)-Azide detection reagents are not provided within this kit.
- Add an appropriate amount of suitable solvent e.g. DMSO to achieve a stock solution concentration of 10 mM for Azide detection reagents and 500 μM for Picolyl-Azide detection reagents.
- Final concentrations of Azide or Alkyne detection reagents may range from 2 μM to 100 μM. Final concentrations of Picolyl-Azide detection reagents may range from 0.5 to 5 μM (see 3.4).
3. General protocol for CLICK labeling of fixated and permeabilized cells containing metabolically functionalized Alkyne- or Azide-modified biomolecules
The protocol below is intended as a general guideline however, individual optimization might be required.
3.1 Metabolically label cells with an Alkyne or Azide-functionalized substrate
- Cultivate cells on coverslips under conditions that ensure optimal growth of cell type.
- Add Alkyne- or Azide-functionalized substrate at the desired final concentration and cultivate for an appropriate time under conditions optimal for metabolic incorporation of the modified substrate.
3.2 Fixate and permeabilize cells
Please note: The fixation with 3.7% formaldehyde in PBS and subsequent permeabilization with 0.5% Triton X-100 is a general guideline. Optimization might be required. Different reagent concentrations, different fixation and permeabilization reagents (e.g. methanol or saponin) or TBS as buffer solution intstead of PBS can be used as well. Permeabilization is not required for cell surface or lipid component labeling.
- Remove cultivation medium
- Transfer each coverslip to a well of a 6-well plate
- Add 1 ml of 3.7% formaldehyde in PBS for fixation and incubate for 15 min. at room temperature.
- Remove fixation reagent and wash 2-3 times with PBS containing 3% BSA.
- Add 1 ml of Triton X-100 in PBS and incubate for 20 minutes at room temperature for permeabilization.
3.3 Prepare CuSO4:THPTA-Premix
Please note: Both the final CuSO4 concentration as well as CuSO4:THPTA ratio are critical parameters for CuAAC reaction efficiency. A final CuSO4 concentration of 2 mM and a CuSO4:THPTA ratio of 1:5 is recommended as a starting point for labeling of fixed and permeabilized cells containing metabolically Azide- or Alkyne-functionalized biomolecules. Individual optimization for each assay is strongly recommended. Minimum CuSO4 concentration: 50 μM.
- Prepare the CuSO4:THPTA-Premix freshly for each experiment.
- Allow all solutions to warm up to room temperature.
- Mix the appropriate amount of 100 mM CuSO4 and 250 mM THPTA stock solution (Tab. 4) by vortexing and spin down briefly.
- 30 μl CuSO4:THPTA-Premix (1 Assay) is sufficient for the preparation of 500 μl CLICK reaction cocktail (see. 3.4).
Table 4 Pipetting scheme for CuSO4:THPTA-Premix (ratio 1:5).

Concentrations can be titrated down in case of high background or up in case of low signal.
3.5 Perform CLICK labeling of fixated and permeabilized Alkyne- or Azide-labeled cells
- Remove the permeabilization buffer (see 3.2) and wash 2-3 times with PBS containing 3% BSA.
