TCO-carbonylamino-benzamido-PEG2 acid
This product is a linker with a TCO group, benzamido unit, PEG2 spacer, and terminal carboxyl. It specifically supports copper-free click chemistry and amide coupling, offering improved solubility and spacing over the PEG1 analog.
Key Features and Benefits
-
TCO Group: Enables rapid copper-free ligation with tetrazines via IEDDA chemistry.
-
Carboxylic Acid Group: Couples efficiently with amines for stable amide bonds.
-
Benzamido-PEG2 Core: Provides rigidity with moderate spacing for controlled conjugation.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines click chemistry with amide coupling.
-
High Purity: Produced to ≥95% purity for consistent bioconjugation results.
Applications
-
Bioconjugation: Links TCO-tagged probes or drugs with amine-functionalized biomolecules.
-
Probe Development: Builds compact probes for imaging and diagnostics.
-
Drug Delivery: Functions as a linker in PEGylated therapeutics with controlled spacing.
-
Chemical Biology: Supports orthogonal labeling strategies in complex systems.
Storage and Handling
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, moisture- and light-protected container.
-
Handling: Prepare fresh solutions before use; avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles.
This product combines fast TCO click chemistry with amide coupling in a compact PEG2 scaffold, making it an especially versatile tool for probe design, conjugation, and drug delivery research.
