TCO-PEG8-amine
This product is a heterobifunctional linker featuring a trans-cyclooctene (TCO) group for ultrafast tetrazine ligation and a terminal amine for versatile conjugation. The PEG8 spacer improves solubility, hydrophilicity, and steric accessibility, making it especially effective for probe development, bioconjugation, and drug delivery.
Key Features and Benefits:
-
TCO Group: Enables rapid, copper-free IEDDA click chemistry with tetrazines.
-
Terminal Amine: Couples efficiently with activated esters and electrophiles.
-
PEG8 Spacer: Enhances solubility, flexibility, and steric spacing.
-
Dual Reactivity: Combines bioorthogonal and amine-targeted chemistry.
-
High Purity: Ensures reproducibility in sensitive workflows.
Applications:
-
Bioorthogonal Labeling: Supports ultrafast tetrazine ligation in vitro and in vivo.
-
Probe Development: Builds TCO-modified probes for imaging and diagnostics.
-
Drug Delivery: Provides PEGylated scaffolds with extended solubility.
-
Bioconjugation: Supports multifunctional and orthogonal conjugation strategies.
Storage and Handling:
-
Storage: Store at –20 °C in a sealed, moisture- and light-protected container.
-
Handling: Use anhydrous solvents (e.g., DMF, DMSO); avoid prolonged light exposure to preserve TCO reactivity.
This product integrates ultrafast tetrazine ligation with amine conjugation in a PEG8 scaffold, specifically offering flexibility, solubility, and control for advanced conjugation strategies.
