Propargyl-PEG5-tetra-Ac-beta-D-galactose CAS:1397682-61-9 is a small molecule linker that is commonly used in the field of bioconjugation. It contains several functional groups, including a propargyl group, a PEG (polyethylene glycol) chain, and a tetra-acetylated beta-D-galactose group.
The propargyl group in Propargyl-PEG5-tetra-Ac-beta-D-galactose is particularly useful, as it can react with azide groups to form stable triazole linkages. This reaction, known as “click chemistry,” is a highly specific and efficient method of bioconjugation that can be used to attach the linker to other molecules. The PEG chain improves the solubility and biocompatibility of the linker, while the tetra-acetylated beta-D-galactose group can be used to target specific cells or tissues.
Propargyl-PEG5-tetra-Ac-beta-D-galactose is a versatile and valuable tool for bioconjugation and drug delivery applications. Its unique combination of functional groups allows for targeted and efficient attachment to other molecules, making it a promising candidate for the development of new targeted therapeutics in various diseases.
