TCO-PEG5-BCN
This product is a heterobifunctional linker containing a trans-cyclooctene (TCO) for ultrafast tetrazine ligation and a bicyclononyne (BCN) for copper-free SPAAC click chemistry. The PEG5 spacer provides solubility, flexibility, and spacing, making this dual-reactive linker especially ideal for multifunctional bioconjugation, probe design, and therapeutic development.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
TCO Group: Enables rapid, catalyst-free IEDDA reactions with tetrazines.
-
BCN Group: Supports SPAAC click chemistry with azides.
-
PEG5 Spacer: Improves solubility, hydrophilicity, and steric accessibility.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines two orthogonal click handles in one scaffold.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in advanced bioconjugation workflows.
Applications:
-
Bioorthogonal Labeling: Enables dual orthogonal conjugation strategies in vitro and in vivo.
-
ADC Development: Useful in designing multifunctional antibody–drug conjugates.
-
Probe Development: Builds dual-functional probes for imaging or diagnostics.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides flexible PEGylated design for targeted conjugation.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a moisture- and light-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO); protect TCO from light to preserve reactivity.
This product integrates two powerful click handles with PEG-enhanced solubility, making it an especially versatile dual-functional linker for advanced bioconjugation and therapeutic research.
