Properties
Description
Mal-PEG1-NHS ester acts as a PEG linker characterized by its maleimide functionality alongside an NHS ester moiety. The presence of its hydrophilic PEG spacer enhances solubility in aqueous solutions as well. This NHS ester enables labeling of primary amines t-located within proteins or other related substances containing amino groups while allowing the maleimide component to react with thiol groups forming covalent bonds that facilitate connections between biomolecules with thiols.
Molecular Formula
C13H14N2O7
Functional Group 3
Maleimide
Form
Solid or viscous liquid
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Maleimide functionalized PEG is used for the conjugation to thiol groups in proteins, antibodies, or peptides. It is useful in creating antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and for various biotechnology applications where specific coupling to thiols is required.
