Product Description
Fmoc-Gly-NH-CH2-O-CH2-Cbz is a PROTAC (PROteolysis TArgeting Chimera) linker and a maleimide-GGFG peptide linker. Fmoc-Gly-NH-CH2-O-CH2-Cbz may be utilized to prepare Deruxtecan.
Fmoc-Gly-NH-CH2-O-CH2-Cbz is a PROTAC linker and a maleimide-GGFG peptide linker. It consists of an Fmoc-protected glycine residue conjugated via an amide bond to a benzyl carbamate (Cbz)-protected aminomethoxyethyl group. This compound can be used in the synthesis of the ADC payload-linker complex Deruxtecan, which is the payload component of the FDA-approved antibody-drug conjugate Enhertu (fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki). The Fmoc group is a temporary protecting group for the amine, which can be removed under basic conditions (e.g., with piperidine) for further elongation. The Cbz group protects the terminal amine and can be removed by hydrogenolysis. The molecular formula is C27H26N2O6, and the molecular weight is 474.51. It has a standard purity of ≥95-97% and should be stored long-term in a cool, dry place.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
PROTAC Linkers; ADC Linkers.
ln Vitro
As a PROTAC and ADC linker, Fmoc-Gly-NH-CH2-O-CH2-Cbz itself has no intrinsic biological activity; it serves as a structural connector in the synthesis of bioconjugates. The Fmoc-protected glycine residue allows for solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) elongation at the N-terminus, enabling the construction of longer peptide linkers. The Cbz-protected amine provides orthogonal protection that can be removed under different conditions (hydrogenolysis) than Fmoc (base-labile). The glycine residue provides a minimal, flexible amino acid spacer. The ether linkage introduces hydrophilicity. In ADC applications, this linker is part of the cleavable peptide linker of Deruxtecan, which is designed for cathepsin-mediated cleavage in the tumor microenvironment.
ln Vivo
No specific in vivo activity has been reported for this linker alone; its activity is derived from the final ADC or PROTAC conjugate after incorporation.
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 ≥95-97%. The Fmoc group can be characterized by its characteristic UV absorption at 265 nm and 301 nm, and by its aromatic proton signals in NMR. The Cbz group can be characterized by its aromatic proton signals.
Cell Assay
N/A; this linker is not tested alone in cell-based assays. In the synthesis of Deruxtecan, this building block is used in solid-phase peptide synthesis to assemble the GGFG peptide linker. The Fmoc group is removed with piperidine, and the next amino acid (glycine) is coupled. The Cbz group is removed by hydrogenolysis at the final stage. The complete Deruxtecan payload-linker complex is then conjugated to an antibody via a maleimide group. The resulting ADC is tested in cells for cytotoxicity and target-specific internalization.
Animal Protocol
N/A; no animal studies are performed with the linker alone. For the final ADC conjugate, in vivo studies are conducted following institutional guidelines. The ADC is typically formulated in a suitable vehicle (e.g., PBS) and administered via intravenous (IV) injection to animal models (e.g., xenografts of HER2-expressing tumors). Efficacy is measured by tumor growth inhibition, and pharmacokinetics are assessed by measuring antibody and payload concentrations in plasma.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
This compound has a molecular weight of 474.51, a molecular formula of C27H26N2O6, and a standard purity of ≥95-97%. The IUPAC name is benzyl 1-(9H-fluoren-9-yl)-3,6-dioxo-2,9-dioxa-4,7-diazaundecan-11-oate. For storage, it should be kept long-term in a cool, dry place, sealed, away from moisture. It is soluble in DMSO and other organic solvents. The product should be protected from light. CAS: 1599440-07-9.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
This product is for research use only and is not for human or veterinary use. Standard chemical safety precautions should be observed during handling. It is not an approved therapeutic drug and has not been cleared for clinical use. It is a building block for the synthesis of research-grade ADC and PROTAC constructs.

Additional Infomation
Fmoc-Gly-NH-CH2-O-CH2-Cbz is a key building block for the synthesis of Deruxtecan, the payload-linker complex of the clinically approved ADC Enhertu (trastuzumab deruxtecan). This ADC is used for the treatment of HER2-positive breast cancer and other HER2-expressing cancers. The GGFG tetrapeptide linker is a cathepsin-cleavable linker that is stable in circulation but rapidly cleaved inside lysosomes of target cancer cells, releasing the cytotoxic payload. The Fmoc and Cbz protecting groups enable orthogonal deprotection strategies for the controlled assembly of the linker and conjugation to the payload. This compound is also a valuable tool for the synthesis of PROTAC molecules that incorporate cleavable peptide linkers for tumor-targeted degradation.
