Properties
Description
HO-PEG-Mal is a linear heterobifunctional polyPEG containing maleimide and hydroxyl groups. The maleimide reacts with thiol groups at pH 6.5 to 7.5 to form a thioether bond. The hydroxyl group enables further derivatization or replacement with other reactive functional groups.
