PEGs
As a PEG-based PROTAC linker, Ethyl-PEG4-alcohol does not have a specific biological target itself but serves as a structural component in PROTAC molecules. The PEG category of linkers is used to connect the E3 ubiquitin ligase ligand to the target protein ligand in PROTAC design. The primary alcohol can be activated for conjugation to various functional groups, while the ethyl group provides a hydrophobic terminal cap. |

| 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. The intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system is utilized by PROTACs to specifically destroy target proteins[1].
Ethyl-PEG4-alcohol functions as a linker component in in vitro PROTAC synthesis and bioconjugation applications. The primary alcohol can be activated for conjugation to various functional groups. The PEG4 spacer provides water solubility and molecular flexibility. In vitro studies typically involve conjugation of this linker to various ligands to evaluate its effectiveness in facilitating protein degradation. The compound is also used as a solvent in various applications, including paints, coatings, inks, and cleaning products. |
| ln Vivo |
In vivo activity data for Ethyl-PEG4-alcohol as a standalone compound are not reported, as it is utilized as a synthetic linker or solubilizing agent rather than as a therapeutic agent. The in vivo efficacy of PROTAC molecules incorporating this PEG4 linker would depend on the specific target protein ligand and the overall pharmacokinetic properties of the complete PROTAC construct.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays for Ethyl-PEG4-alcohol typically involve conjugation studies rather than direct binding measurements. The primary alcohol can be activated for conjugation to various functional groups, and conjugation efficiency can be assessed by techniques such as NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, or HPLC. Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) may be employed to evaluate the binding of PROTAC molecules containing this linker to their targets.
|
| Cell Assay |
In vitro cell-based assays using Ethyl-PEG4-alcohol typically involve its incorporation into PROTAC molecules, followed by evaluation in cell culture systems. Cells are treated with PROTACs containing this PEG4 linker, and target protein degradation is measured by Western blotting or immunofluorescence. Dose-response experiments are performed to determine optimal concentrations for degradation studies. The PEG4 chain provides water solubility, facilitating compound handling and delivery in cell culture media.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal studies using Ethyl-PEG4-alcohol are conducted as part of the evaluation of complete PROTAC molecules that incorporate this PEG4 linker. Typical protocols involve administering PROTAC constructs to animal models, followed by assessment of pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, or efficacy. The PEG4 spacer is expected to improve the pharmacokinetic profile by increasing hydrophilicity.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
As a linker rather than a therapeutic drug, comprehensive pharmacokinetic data for Ethyl-PEG4-alcohol alone are not available. The compound has a molecular formula of C10H22O5 and a molecular weight of 222.28. The relative density is 1.0393 g/cm³. The compound appears as a liquid. It has a purity of ≥95%. It is a PEG-based PROTAC linker that can be used in the synthesis of PROTACs.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicity profile of Ethyl-PEG4-alcohol as an individual compound is not extensively characterized, as it is primarily used as a research reagent and synthetic linker. The compound is intended for research use only and is not approved for therapeutic use in humans. Standard laboratory safety practices, including the use of personal protective equipment, are recommended.
