DBCO-C4-PEG2-amine
This product is a heterobifunctional PEG linker containing a dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO), a C4-PEG2 spacer, and a terminal amine. It specifically enables copper-free click chemistry and amide coupling, offering solubility, flexibility, and multifunctionality.
Key Features and Benefits
-
DBCO Group: Reacts rapidly with azides via SPAAC copper-free click chemistry.
-
Primary Amine: Couples efficiently with carboxyls, NHS esters, or activated linkers.
-
C4-PEG2 Spacer: Provides balanced hydrophilicity, solubility, and moderate flexibility.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines click chemistry with amide coupling functionality.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in 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 dual orthogonal reactivity.
-
Material Science: Functionalizes nanoparticles, polymers, and surfaces with click and amine 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.
