Description
N--(Mal-PEG6)-N-bis(PEG3-amine), TFA salt is a water-soluble PEG linker containing a maleimide and two amino groups. The maleimide group reacts with thiol groups to form covalent bonds, facilitating biomolecule conjugation. The amino groups are reactive with various functional groups like carboxylic acids and activated NHS esters.
Applications
This linker is crucial in bioconjugation reactions, enabling the attachment of biomolecules to surfaces or other biomolecules. N--(Mal-PEG6)-N-bis(PEG3-amine), TFA salt is particularly useful in protein labeling, antibody conjugation, and drug delivery systems, enhancing specificity and stability.
