Sulfo DBCO-PEG3-acid CAS:2566404-75-7 contains a sulfo group (-SO3-) and a DBCO group (dibenzocyclooctyne) attached to a PEG chain, with an additional carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at the end of the chain.
The DBCO group is known for its ability to undergo a bioorthogonal click reaction with azide-containing molecules, allowing for the specific and efficient labeling of biomolecules in living systems. The sulfo group, on the other hand, imparts water solubility and biocompatibility to the compound, making it suitable for use in biological systems. The carboxylic acid group provides an additional site for conjugation to other molecules.
Sulfo DBCO-PEG3-acid has been extensively used in the development of targeted drug delivery systems and imaging agents. Its bioorthogonal click reaction can be utilized to specifically label biomolecules, such as proteins and peptides, with therapeutic or imaging agents, allowing for targeted delivery and imaging in vivo. The water solubility and biocompatibility of the compound also make it suitable for use in various biological applications, such as bioconjugation, protein labeling, and surface modification of medical devices.
