Ald-CH2-PEG2-Azide
This product is a heterobifunctional PEG linker containing an aldehyde group, a PEG2 spacer, and a terminal azide. It specifically enables carbonyl conjugation and bioorthogonal click chemistry, offering dual reactivity in a compact and soluble scaffold.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Aldehyde Group: Couples with amines or hydrazides via reductive amination or oxime ligation.
-
Azide Group: Reacts with alkynes in CuAAC or SPAAC click chemistry.
-
PEG2 Spacer: Provides solubility and reduces steric hindrance.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines aldehyde-based conjugation with azide click chemistry.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in bioconjugation workflows.
Applications
-
Bioconjugation: Links aldehyde- and alkyne-modified molecules in orthogonal systems.
-
Probe Development: Builds multifunctional probes for imaging and diagnostics.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEG scaffolds with orthogonal handles for conjugation.
-
Material Science: Functionalizes nanoparticles and polymers with aldehyde and azide groups.
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.
