| Targets |
This compound is a chemical linker rather than a drug with a specific biological target. It serves as a conjugation tool for attaching payloads to antibodies or other proteins via amine and thiol chemistry.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Thiol-bearing ligands can be coupled to amine-functionalized matrices using the heterobifunctional cross-linker maleimide-PEG-NHS ester [1].
Mal-PEG3-NHS ester does not possess intrinsic biological activity. Its utility is demonstrated through conjugation reactions: the NHS ester reacts with lysine amines on proteins at pH 7.2-8.5 to form amide bonds, while the maleimide reacts with cysteine thiols at pH 6.5-7.5 to form stable thioether bonds. The PEG3 spacer enhances solubility. |
| ln Vivo |
This compound is not designed for direct in vivo administration. Its in vivo relevance is demonstrated through the efficacy of ADCs or PROTACs synthesized using this linker. The hydrophilic PEG3 spacer increases aqueous solubility and reduces aggregation of conjugated proteins.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Conjugation efficiency is assessed by HPLC, LC-MS, or MALDI-TOF. NHS ester reactions are performed at pH 7.4 in PBS or HEPES buffer. Maleimide-thiol reactions are conducted at pH 6.5-7.5. The degree of conjugation is determined by UV-Vis or mass spectrometry. Hydrolysis of NHS ester is monitored by HPLC.
|
| Cell Assay |
No cell-based assays are performed for the linker itself. Cell-based assays are conducted with the final ADC or PROTAC conjugate. These include cell viability assays on target cells, receptor binding assays, and target engagement studies.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo efficacy studies are performed with the final ADC or PROTAC conjugate in mouse xenograft models. Tumor-bearing mice are treated with the conjugate via intravenous administration. Tumor growth inhibition, body weight, and survival are monitored. Pharmacokinetic studies assess conjugate stability.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Mal-PEG3-NHS ester has molecular weight approximately 400.4 and formula C17H24N2O8. It is soluble in DMSO, DMF, and acetonitrile. The PEG3 spacer provides moderate hydrophilicity. The NHS ester is moisture-sensitive and should be stored desiccated at -20°C. As a linker, it is not intended for standalone pharmacokinetic characterization.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
As a chemical linker rather than a therapeutic agent, Mal-PEG3-NHS ester has no intrinsic toxicity. Toxicity is assessed at the level of the final ADC or PROTAC conjugate. The PEG moiety is biocompatible. Standard toxicological assessments are performed with the complete conjugate.

| Solubility (In Vitro) |

| Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.28 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.28 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution.  (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.) |

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
