Product Description
Azido-PEG5-alcohol is a PEG analogue containing an azide group and a terminal hydroxyl group. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. The azide group can react with alkyne, BCN, DBCO via Click Chemistry to yield a stable triazole linkage. The hydroxyl group enables further derivatization or replacement with other reactive functional groups.
Azido-PEG5-alcohol (CAS#: 86770-68-5) is a non-cleavable 5-unit polyethylene glycol (PEG) linker used in the synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and PROTACs (proteolysis-targeting chimeras). It is a PEG analogue containing an azide group and a terminal hydroxyl group. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. The compound has a molecular weight of 263.29 g/mol and a molecular formula of C10H21N3O5. Its IUPAC name is 2-[2-[2-[2-(2-azidoethoxy)ethoxy]ethoxy]ethoxy]ethanol.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Azido-PEG5-alcohol is a heterobifunctional PEG linker used in the synthesis of ADCs and PROTACs. The azide group can react with alkyne, BCN, and DBCO via click chemistry to yield a stable triazole linkage. The terminal hydroxyl group enables further derivatization or replacement with other reactive functional groups. The PEG5 spacer provides a balance of properties between shorter and longer PEG linkers, enhancing solubility and stability of the resulting conjugates. The compound is extensively utilized in bioconjugation techniques, particularly for labeling and imaging applications.
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, Azido-PEG5-alcohol is used as a building block for the synthesis of ADCs and PROTACs. ADCs consist of an antibody linked to a cytotoxic payload via an ADC linker. PROTACs contain two distinct ligands connected by a linker: one for an E3 ubiquitin ligase and the other for the target protein, utilizing the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system to selectively degrade target proteins. The PEG spacer enhances the solubility and stability of the resulting conjugates in aqueous solutions. The azide group enables precise attachment to alkyne-modified biomolecules.
ln Vivo
In vivo, Azido-PEG5-alcohol is not administered directly but is used to synthesize ADCs and PROTACs that are evaluated in animal models. The PEG spacer enhances the solubility, stability, and bioavailability of the resulting conjugates. The compound's role as a linker in ADC synthesis enables targeted delivery of chemotherapeutics with reduced systemic toxicity. In PROTAC development, the PEG linker facilitates the formation of chimeric molecules that induce degradation of disease-relevant proteins. Its utility in drug development has been validated in various preclinical studies involving ADC and PROTAC-based therapeutics.
Enzyme Assay
In cell-free biochemical assays, Azido-PEG5-alcohol is characterized for its chemical properties and conjugation efficiency. The compound's purity (>98%) is determined using analytical techniques such as HPLC. Its reactivity with alkyne-containing molecules via click chemistry is assessed. The compound's solubility in DMSO (10 mM) and aqueous media is evaluated. Its stability under various storage conditions is assessed to ensure the integrity of the linker for long-term research use. The compound's LogP of -1.59 indicates high hydrophilicity.
Cell Assay
Cellular assays for Azido-PEG5-alcohol are evaluated indirectly through the biological activity of the ADCs or PROTACs synthesized using this linker. The resulting ADCs are tested for their ability to bind to target antigens and deliver cytotoxic payloads to cancer cells. The resulting PROTACs are tested for their ability to degrade target proteins. The PEG linker's effect on cellular uptake, intracellular trafficking, and biological activity is assessed. The compound itself is not biologically active and serves only as a structural component.
Animal Protocol
Animal models for Azido-PEG5-alcohol involve evaluating the ADCs or PROTACs synthesized using this linker in preclinical studies. The resulting conjugates are tested in tumor xenograft models (for ADCs) or disease models relevant to the target protein (for PROTACs). The PEG linker's effect on pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, and efficacy is assessed. The compound's role in enabling targeted drug delivery and protein degradation has been demonstrated in various preclinical studies. Its utility in drug development continues to be explored.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
