Bis-Mal-Lysine-PEG4-TFP ester
Bis-Mal-Lysine-PEG4-TFP ester is a multifunctional crosslinker specifically with two maleimides, a lysine core, a PEG4 spacer, and a TFP ester. It enables thiol and amine conjugation with improved solubility and flexibility, especially ideal for protein crosslinking, ADCs, and probe design.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Bis-Maleimide Groups: Enable dual thiol conjugation, forming stable thioether linkages.
-
TFP Ester: Highly reactive toward primary amines for efficient, stable amide bond formation.
-
Lysine Core: Provides a branching point for multifunctional attachment.
-
PEG4 Spacer: Enhances solubility and accessibility in bioconjugation workflows.
-
High Purity: Produced to ≥95% purity for reliable and reproducible performance.
Applications
-
Protein Crosslinking: Bridges thiol- and amine-containing biomolecules for stable conjugates.
-
Antibody–Drug Conjugates (ADCs): Serves as a cleavable linker scaffold for drug delivery.
-
Probe Development: Builds multifunctional probes for diagnostics and imaging.
-
Bioconjugation: Supports orthogonal conjugation strategies in complex biological systems.
Storage and Handling
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, light- and moisture-protected container.
-
Handling: Dissolve freshly in dry solvent; avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles.
This product integrates thiol- and amine-reactive chemistry with a PEG4 solubilizing spacer, making it an especially powerful tool for multifunctional bioconjugation and therapeutic research.
