Product Description
22-(tert-Butoxy)-22-oxodocosanoic acid is a non-cleavable (non-degradable) ADC linker used for the synthesis of active antibody conjugated molecules (ADCs). 22-(tert-Butoxy)-22-oxodocosanoic acid is also a PROTAC (PROteolysis TArgeting Chimera) linker based on alkyl chain and may be utilized to prepare PROTAC molecules.
22-(tert-Butoxy)-22-oxodocosanoic acid (CAS 1642333-05-8) is a non-cleavable ADC linker used in the synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). It is also an alkyl chain-based PROTAC linker that can be used in the synthesis of PROTACs. This compound is a long-chain fatty acid derivative featuring a tert-butoxy group at the 22nd carbon position.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Non-cleavable Linker
The primary targets of 22-(tert-Butoxy)-22-oxodocosanoic acid are the linker structures in ADC and PROTAC technologies. As a non-cleavable ADC linker, it connects the antibody to the cytotoxic payload, providing stability to the conjugate. In PROTAC applications, it links the E3 ubiquitin ligase ligand to the target protein ligand, facilitating the formation of a ternary complex that leads to targeted protein degradation. The compound does not directly bind to enzymes or receptors but serves as a structural component.
ln Vitro
ADC cytotoxins are connected to antibodies through an ADC connector to form ADCs [1]. Two distinct ligands, one for the E3 ubiquitin ligase and the other for the target protein, are present in PROTAC and are joined by a linker. PROTAC selectively degrades target proteins by means of the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system [2].
In vitro, this compound functions as a structural linker in ADC and PROTAC molecules. ADC cytotoxins are attached to antibodies through this linker to form stable ADCs. For PROTACs, two distinct ligands—one for the E3 ubiquitin ligase and the other for the target protein—are joined by the linker. The resulting PROTAC selectively degrades target proteins via the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system. The compound itself does not exhibit direct cellular activity but enables the bioactivity of the conjugated therapeutic agent.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity of 22-(tert-Butoxy)-22-oxodocosanoic acid is realized through the ADC or PROTAC constructs in which it is incorporated. As a non-cleavable linker, it provides stability to the ADC in circulation, ensuring the cytotoxic payload remains attached until target cell engagement. For PROTACs, the linker facilitates the formation of the ternary complex between target protein and E3 ligase, leading to ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. The in vivo efficacy depends on the specific antibody or targeting ligand used in the conjugate.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for 22-(tert-Butoxy)-22-oxodocosanoic acid focus on evaluating the stability of the linker under physiological conditions. The compound is incubated in buffer solutions (e.g., PBS, pH 7.4) at 37°C for various time points. Samples are analyzed by HPLC or LC-MS to monitor the integrity of the linker and detect any degradation products. The non-cleavable nature is confirmed by the absence of significant degradation, indicating its suitability for stable conjugation in ADC applications. Solubility testing is performed in DMSO, H₂O, ethanol, and DMF to determine formulation conditions.
Cell Assay
In vitro cellular assays for this compound involve testing the complete ADC or PROTAC molecule rather than the linker alone. For ADC evaluation, cancer cell lines are treated with the ADC, and cell viability is assessed using CCK-8 or MTT assays after 72 hours. For PROTAC studies, target protein degradation is measured by Western blot analysis in treated cells. The linker itself does not directly affect cell viability but is essential for the function of the conjugated therapeutic molecule.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies for 22-(tert-Butoxy)-22-oxodocosanoic acid are conducted using the final ADC or PROTAC construct. For ADC evaluation, tumor-bearing xenograft models receive the ADC via intravenous injection. Tumor volume and body weight are monitored over 2-4 weeks to assess efficacy and tolerability. For PROTAC evaluation, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic parameters are measured, including target protein degradation in tissues. The linker contributes to the stability and PK profile of the conjugate.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
The pharmacokinetic properties of 22-(tert-Butoxy)-22-oxodocosanoic acid are determined by the conjugate in which it is incorporated. The compound has a molecular weight of 426.67 and a molecular formula of C₂₆H₅₀O₄. It is stable as a powder at -20°C for 3 years and at 4°C for 2 years. In solvent, it is stable at -80°C for 6 months and at -20°C for 1 month. It has a LogP of 9.9, indicating high lipophilicity. For in vivo formulations, the linker is typically conjugated to larger molecules, which determines the overall PK profile.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicity profile of 22-(tert-Butoxy)-22-oxodocosanoic acid is associated with the ADC or PROTAC molecules in which it is used. As a linker compound, it is considered to have low intrinsic toxicity. Standard toxicity studies for the final conjugate include assessment of body weight changes, clinical observations, hematological parameters, and histopathological examination of major organs in animal models. The linker itself does not exhibit significant cytotoxic effects in standard cell viability assays.
