DBCO-NH-PEG4-amine
This product is a heterobifunctional PEG linker containing a dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO) group, a PEG4 spacer, and a free amine. It specifically enables copper-free click chemistry with azides and amide coupling, offering solubility and orthogonal reactivity.
Key Features and Benefits
-
DBCO Group: Reacts rapidly with azides via strain-promoted azide–alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC).
-
Primary Amine: Couples with carboxyls, NHS esters, or activated linkers.
-
PEG4 Spacer: Enhances solubility and provides moderate chain length.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines copper-free click chemistry with amine conjugation.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in sensitive bioconjugation workflows.
Applications
-
Bioconjugation: Links azide-modified biomolecules with amine-reactive partners.
-
Probe Development: Builds multifunctional probes for imaging and diagnostics.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEG scaffolds with orthogonal reactive groups.
-
Material Science: Functionalizes nanoparticles, surfaces, and polymers with dual chemistry.
Storage and Handling
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, light- and moisture-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents such as DMF or DMSO; avoid prolonged exposure to moisture.
