Bioorthogonal cleavable linkers are attractive building blocks for compounds that can be manipulated to study biological and cellular processes. Sodium dithionite sensitive azobenzene-containing (Abc) peptides were applied for the temporary stabilization of recombinant MHC complexes, which can then...
