PROTAC Linkers. |
|---|---|
| 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].
As a linker molecule, Br-Boc-C2-azido itself has no intrinsic biological activity; it serves as a structural connector to join a target protein ligand and an E3 ubiquitin ligase ligand in PROTAC synthesis. The bromide group is a good leaving group that can undergo nucleophilic substitution (SN2) with nucleophiles such as thiols, amines, or carboxylates to attach a ligand. The azide group is a click chemistry handle that can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) or strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) with alkyne-containing molecules. The Boc-protected amine provides an orthogonal protecting group that can be removed under acidic conditions (TFA) to reveal a free amine for amide bond formation. The short C2 spacer provides a minimal, rigid connection. |
| ln Vivo |
No specific in vivo activity has been reported for this linker alone; its activity is derived from the final PROTAC molecule after conjugation with appropriate ligands. The in vivo efficacy of a complete PROTAC is determined in animal models.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
N/A; this compound is not assessed in isolated enzyme/receptor binding assays. As a synthetic intermediate, its quality is typically confirmed by analytical methods such as HPLC and NMR, with a standard purity of ≥95%. The azide group can be characterized by its characteristic IR absorption at around 2100 cm-1. The Boc group can be characterized by its singlet around 1.4-1.5 ppm in 1H NMR. The bromide group can be identified by mass spectrometry.
|
| Cell Assay |
N/A; this linker is not tested alone in cell-based assays. It is used as a building block for constructing PROTACs. In a typical synthesis, the azide group is reacted with an alkyne-containing ligand via CuAAc or SPAAC. The bromide group is displaced by a nucleophile from another ligand. The Boc group is removed with TFA, and the resulting free amine is conjugated to a carboxylic acid-containing ligand. The resulting PROTAC is then tested in cells for target degradation activity. The short C2 spacer may be optimal for target-E3 ligase pairs requiring a minimal distance.
|
| Animal Protocol |
N/A; no animal studies are performed with the linker alone. For a complete PROTAC conjugate, in vivo studies are conducted following institutional guidelines. The compound is typically formulated using a vehicle containing DMSO, PEG300, Tween-80, and saline and administered via intraperitoneal (IP) or intravenous (IV) injection. The short C2 spacer may improve the cellular permeability of the final PROTAC.

| Additional Infomation |
Br-Boc-C2-azido is a compact, trifunctional linker containing three orthogonal reactive handles: a bromide (for nucleophilic substitution), an azide (for click chemistry), and a Boc-protected amine (for amide coupling after deprotection). This high degree of functionality allows for the construction of complex PROTACs with diverse conjugation strategies. The short C2 spacer provides a minimal, rigid connection that can be critical for target-E3 ligase pairs requiring a short distance for ternary complex formation. This linker is a valuable building block for advanced PROTAC development and for the synthesis of multifunctional probes.
