Description
Fmoc-PEG3-NHS ester has a Fmoc protecting group, a PEG3 chain, and an NHS ester. It is often used in peptide synthesis and bioconjugation processes, where the Fmoc group provides protection and the PEG3 chain influences solubility and reactivity.
Applications
The Fmoc (fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl) group allows for easy protection and deprotection of amines during peptide synthesis. This compound is useful in synthesizing peptide-PEG conjugates, enhancing solubility and bioavailability of peptides.
