Not applicable. DBCO-PEG2-DBCO is a chemical linker for bioconjugation, not a drug. It has no biological target. The DBCO groups are designed for copper-free click chemistry, specifically for strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions. These DBCO groups react rapidly and selectively with azide-functionalized molecules (e.g., payloads, antibodies, or fluorescent probes) without the need for toxic copper catalysts. The PEG2 spacer (two ethylene glycol units) increases water solubility and reduces steric hindrance.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
As a bioconjugation linker, DBCO-PEG2-DBCO has no direct biological activity. Its value is in enabling the efficient and specific conjugation of antibody-drug conjugates via copper-free click chemistry. The high strain energy of the DBCO groups promotes rapid reaction rates and high yields, while the PEG spacer improves water solubility, making it ideal for diverse research applications.
|
| ln Vivo |
No specific in vivo data is reported. As a linker, it is not studied directly in vivo. However, ADCs synthesized using DBCO-PEG2-DBCO demonstrate improved stability and efficacy in tumor xenograft models. The copper-free click chemistry conjugation method avoids the potential toxicity of copper catalysts, making it suitable for in vivo applications.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Not applicable. DBCO-PEG2-DBCO is a chemical reagent. A typical conjugation protocol involves dissolving the linker (1-5 mM) in anhydrous DMSO or DMF. To conjugate an azide-functionalized payload, the linker and the azide are mixed in a 1:1 to 1:3 molar ratio in PBS (pH 7.2-7.4) containing 5-10% organic co-solvent. The reaction is incubated at room temperature for 2-6 hours, and conversion is monitored by LC-MS or TLC. The product is purified by preparative HPLC or size exclusion chromatography.
|
| Cell Assay |
Not applicable. The compound is not used in cell-based assays. However, the fully synthesized ADC or labeled antibody can be tested in vitro. Target-positive cancer cells are seeded in 96-well plates and treated with the ADC or labeled antibody. For ADCs, cell viability is measured by CellTiter-Glo. For imaging applications, the DBCO-PEG2-DBCO linker can be used to conjugate azide-labeled antibodies to fluorescent dyes, and cell binding is assessed by flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy.
|
| Animal Protocol |
No specific in vivo animal study protocols are documented for DBCO-PEG2-DBCO itself. For an ADC synthesized with this linker, a typical protocol involves intravenous administration of the ADC (1-10 mg/kg) in immunodeficient mice bearing tumor xenografts of target-positive cancer cells. Efficacy is assessed by tumor volume measurement and survival analysis. PK studies measure ADC concentration in plasma and tissues by ELISA or LC-MS.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Not applicable for the linker. The PEG2 spacer in DBCO-PEG2-DBCO imparts favorable properties to the final conjugate. The hydrophilic PEG chain reduces non-specific protein binding, improves solubility, and can increase the circulation half-life of the conjugated product. The small PEG2 size minimizes steric interference with the antibody's antigen binding.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
No toxicity data is reported. DBCO-PEG2-DBCO is a chemical reagent. The DBCO groups are reactive and may form adducts with biological nucleophiles; therefore, it should be handled with care. Standard chemical safety precautions apply. The compound is for research use only, not for human therapeutic use.
