Phthalimidyoxyl-PEG4-Val-Cit-PAB-OH CAS:1415328-97-0 is a type of small molecule drug that is composed of several functional groups. The phthalimidyoxyl group is a type of imide compound that contains two carbonyl groups and is commonly used as a protecting group for amines. The PEG4 group is a polyethylene glycol spacer that is used to improve the solubility and stability of the drug in solution. The Val-Cit group is a dipeptide that contains the amino acids valine and citrulline, and is commonly used as a linker in antibody-drug conjugates. The PAB-OH group is a para-aminobenzoic acid group that is commonly used as a linker in antibody-drug conjugates.
The combination of these functional groups in Phthalimidyoxyl-PEG4-Val-Cit-PAB-OH is designed to create a drug that can be used in the development of antibody-drug conjugates. Antibody-drug conjugates are a type of targeted therapy that combines the specificity of an antibody with the cytotoxic activity of a small molecule drug. The Val-Cit and PAB-OH groups in Phthalimidyoxyl-PEG4-Val-Cit-PAB-OH are specifically designed to link the drug to an antibody, allowing it to selectively target cancer cells while minimizing damage to healthy cells.
