Product Description
Mal-PEG4-PFP ester is a non-degradable ADC linker containing Maleimide group, 4-unit PEG and PFP ester.
Mal-PEG4-PFP (CAS#: 1415800-42-8) is a heterobifunctional PEG linker containing a maleimide group and a pentafluorophenyl (PFP) ester, with a PEG spacer of 4 ethylene glycol units. The maleimide group reacts specifically with thiol groups, while the PFP ester reacts with primary amines to form stable amide bonds. PFP esters are more stable to hydrolysis than NHS esters, making this linker suitable for aqueous conjugation.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
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, with enhanced stability compared to NHS ester-based linkers.
ln Vitro
Mal-PEG4-PFP ester does not possess intrinsic biological activity. Its utility is demonstrated through conjugation reactions: the PFP ester reacts with lysine amines on proteins under mild aqueous conditions (pH 7.0-8.0) to form amide bonds, while the maleimide reacts with cysteine thiols (pH 6.5-7.5) to form stable thioether bonds.
ln Vivo
This compound is not designed for direct in vivo administration. Its in vivo relevance is demonstrated through the efficacy of ADCs synthesized using this linker. The PFP ester provides improved stability in aqueous environments compared to NHS esters, enabling more efficient conjugations.
Enzyme Assay
Conjugation efficiency is assessed by HPLC, LC-MS, or MALDI-TOF. PFP ester reactions with amines are performed at pH 7.0-8.0 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. PFP ester stability 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 conjugate. These include cell viability assays on target antigen-expressing cancer cell lines, receptor binding assays, and internalization studies.
Animal Protocol
In vivo efficacy studies are performed with the final ADC 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 and payload release.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Mal-PEG4-PFP has molecular weight approximately 497.4 and formula C20H22F5NO7. It is soluble in DMSO, DMF, and acetonitrile. The PFP ester is more hydrolytically stable than NHS esters. The PEG4 spacer provides good hydrophilicity. The compound should be stored desiccated at -20°C.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
As a chemical linker rather than a therapeutic agent, Mal-PEG4-PFP has no intrinsic toxicity. Toxicity is assessed at the level of the final ADC conjugate. The PFP ester is hydrolyzed during conjugation. Standard toxicological assessments are performed with the complete conjugate.
Additional Infomation
Mal-PEG4-PFP is a research-grade PEG linker used for bioconjugation applications. The PFP ester provides enhanced stability for aqueous conjugation reactions compared to NHS esters. This linker is employed in ADC synthesis where controlled, efficient conjugation is required. No clinical trials or approved therapeutic applications exist.
These protocols are for reference only. InvivoChem does not independently validate these methods.
