| Targets |
The primary targets of Maleimide-C10-NHS ester are primary amines and thiols on proteins, peptides, and other biomolecules. The NHS ester reacts with amines to form amide bonds, while the maleimide group reacts with thiols to form thioether bonds. The compound does not have a specific biological target but is used as a chemical tool for bioconjugation. These applications make it relevant for protein chemistry, drug delivery, and biosensor development.

| ln Vitro |
One ligand is for an E3 ubiquitin ligase, and the other is for the target protein; these two ligands are joined by a linker to form PROTACs. To specifically destroy target proteins, PROTACs take advantage of the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system.[1]
In vitro, Maleimide-C10-NHS ester is used for the conjugation of proteins, peptides, and antibodies. The NHS ester reacts with primary amines under mild conditions (pH 7-9) to form stable amide bonds, while the maleimide group reacts with thiols (pH 6.5-7.5) to form stable thioether bonds. The 10-carbon spacer provides flexibility and distance. The compound is used in the preparation of protein conjugates, antibody-drug conjugates, and biosensors. These in vitro activities support its use in protein chemistry, drug delivery, and diagnostics. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Maleimide-C10-NHS ester is not used as a therapeutic agent itself but is used in the preparation of conjugates for in vivo applications. Protein conjugates prepared using this compound have been used in drug delivery, imaging, and diagnostics. The compound’s reactivity with amines and thiols makes it useful for creating stable conjugates that can be administered in vivo. However, the compound itself is not administered systemically.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro assays for Maleimide-C10-NHS ester involve testing its conjugation efficiency with model proteins or peptides. The compound is incubated with a protein (e.g., bovine serum albumin) at molar ratios ranging from 1:1 to 100:1 in buffered solutions (pH 7-8) for 1-24 hours. Conjugation efficiency is assessed by SDS-PAGE, MALDI-TOF, or HPLC. The reactivity of the NHS ester and maleimide groups is confirmed by the disappearance of the NHS peak and maleimide absorbance. All assays include appropriate controls.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays for Maleimide-C10-NHS ester are not typically conducted with the compound itself. Instead, conjugates prepared using this compound are tested in cell-based assays to evaluate their biological activity. Cells are treated with conjugates at various concentrations, and the desired biological effect is measured. Cell viability is assessed using MTT assays. Experiments include vehicle controls and appropriate positive and negative controls.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies are not typically conducted with Maleimide-C10-NHS ester alone. Instead, conjugates prepared using this compound are evaluated in animal models. The conjugates are administered via intravenous or intraperitoneal injection at appropriate doses. Efficacy and pharmacokinetics are assessed. Each group consists of 6-10 animals with appropriate controls.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties of Maleimide-C10-NHS ester are not typically characterized, as it is a crosslinking reagent rather than a therapeutic agent. The compound is rapidly hydrolyzed in aqueous solution and reacts with amines and thiols to form stable conjugates. Its reactivity and stability in solution are characterized for bioconjugation applications.

Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*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.
