| Targets |
No specific biological target. Sulfo DBCO-PEG4-Maleimide TEA is a bioconjugation reagent. The DBCO group reacts with azides via copper-free click chemistry (SPAAC), while the maleimide group reacts specifically with sulfhydryl groups (thiols, typically from cysteine residues). The PEG4 spacer improves water solubility and reduces non-specific interactions.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Not applicable. Sulfo DBCO-PEG4-Maleimide TEA is a chemical linker used for the conjugation of biomolecules. It is not used as a modulator of biological activity but rather as a tool for generating labeled antibodies, proteins, or PROTAC degraders. The reactivity of both functional groups is maintained under mild, aqueous conditions.
|
| ln Vivo |
Not applicable. Sulfo DBCO-PEG4-Maleimide TEA is not used as a therapeutic agent. It is used in the synthesis of PROTACs (proteolysis-targeting chimeras) and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). When incorporated into these molecules, it can contribute to in vivo efficacy by facilitating targeted protein degradation or tumor cell killing.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Non-cell-based conjugation assay: A thiol-containing protein (1 mg/mL in PBS, pH 7.4) is incubated with sulfo DBCO-PEG4-maleimide TEA (2-20 equivalents) for 2 h at room temperature. The maleimide-thiol reaction efficiency is assessed by mass spectrometry or SDS-PAGE. DBCO-azide click conjugation efficiency is assessed by incubating the maleimide-labeled protein with an azide-containing fluorophore for 1-4 h and measuring fluorescence.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cell surface conjugation: Cells expressing azide-labeled surface glycans (via metabolic labeling with azido-sugars) are incubated with sulfo DBCO-PEG4-maleimide TEA (10-100 uM) for 30-60 min at 37degC. After washing, cells are fixed and analyzed by flow cytometry or confocal microscopy. The maleimide group can be used to attach thiol-functionalized cargoes.
|
| Animal Protocol |
Not applicable as an independent drug. Sulfo DBCO-PEG4-Maleimide TEA is used for the ex vivo labeling of cells or for the preparation of conjugates that are subsequently administered in animal models. For example, a thiol-containing antibody is conjugated to an azide-containing payload via this reagent, and the resulting conjugate is injected into mice for pharmacokinetic or efficacy studies.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic data for Sulfo DBCO-PEG4-Maleimide TEA alone are not relevant. As a PEG-containing reagent (MW 927.07), it is designed to improve the aqueous solubility and pharmacokinetic properties of the conjugates it creates. The PEG4 spacer reduces immunogenicity and increases circulating half-life when attached to proteins. The compound should be stored at -20degC, sealed, away from moisture.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicity data for Sulfo DBCO-PEG4-Maleimide TEA are not reported, as it is a chemical linker for research use only. It should be handled with care to avoid inhalation, ingestion, and skin contact. Maleimide reagents can be skin irritants and may cause allergic reactions. The compound is not approved for human therapeutic or diagnostic use.
