BCN-exo-PEG7-Maleimide
CAS: 2143965-47-1
Description:
BCN-exo-PEG7-Maleimide is a versatile compound that combines a strained BCN (bicyclo[6.1.0]nonyne) group with a maleimide functional group through a PEG7 (polyethylene glycol) linker. This structure facilitates efficient copper-free click chemistry and thiol-specific conjugation, making it valuable for bioconjugation applications.
Key Features:
- BCN Group: Enables fast, copper-free click reactions with azides, suitable for bioorthogonal labeling.
- PEG7 Linker: Provides enhanced solubility and flexibility, improving the biocompatibility of the conjugate.
- Maleimide Functionality: Allows for specific conjugation with thiol groups on biomolecules, such as cysteine residues in proteins.
Applications:
- Bioconjugation: Used in linking biomolecules for applications in drug delivery, diagnostics, and protein engineering.
- Molecular Imaging: Ideal for labeling proteins, peptides, and other molecules for imaging studies.
- Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs): Frequently utilized in developing targeted therapeutics due to its dual-functional reactivity.
