Product Description
Gly-Gly-Gly-PEG2-azide is an ADC linker that can be used to synthesize antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs).
Gly-Gly-Gly-PEG2-azide (CAS# 2222277-20-3) is an ADC linker that can be used in the synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). It consists of a tri-glycine (Gly-Gly-Gly) peptide chain, a PEG2 (polyethylene glycol) spacer, and a terminal azide group. The peptide chain provides biocompatibility and flexible linkage, the PEG2 improves water solubility and spatial extension, and the azide group enables highly efficient click chemistry reactions (e.g., copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition, CuAAC). Its molecular formula is C12H23N7O5, and its molecular weight is 345.35. It is intended for research purposes only.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
This compound does not have a biological target itself; it is a chemical linker used for bioconjugation. The azide group reacts with alkyne-functionalized molecules via click chemistry, enabling the covalent attachment of two entities. In ADC synthesis, it is used to connect an antibody (modified with an alkyne) to a cytotoxic payload (or vice versa). The Gly-Gly-Gly and PEG2 segments provide a hydrophilic and flexible spacer that improves the solubility and stability of the resulting conjugate. It is a chemical tool for ADC synthesis.
ln Vitro
Gly-Gly-Gly-PEG2-azide itself is not evaluated for direct biological activity as it is a linker. Its activity is demonstrated through its use in synthesizing ADCs. The efficiency of the click chemistry conjugation reaction is assessed in vitro. The resulting ADC is then tested for its ability to bind to target antigens on cancer cells and exert cytotoxicity. The linker's stability and hydrophilicity contribute to the overall properties of the ADC. It is a chemical building block.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity is not applicable to Gly-Gly-Gly-PEG2-azide itself as it is a linker for ADC synthesis. The in vivo efficacy would be attributed to the complete ADC molecule synthesized using this linker. Such ADCs would be evaluated in animal models for antitumor activity and pharmacokinetics. The compound itself is not administered to animals. Its role is confined to chemical synthesis. It is stored and handled based on its chemical properties.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro enzyme/receptor binding assays are not applicable to Gly-Gly-Gly-PEG2-azide as it is a linker, not a drug candidate. The primary in vitro characterization involves the click chemistry conjugation reaction. The azide group is reacted with an alkyne-functionalized molecule in the presence of a copper catalyst. The progress of the reaction is monitored by HPLC or mass spectrometry. The efficiency of the conjugation is assessed. No receptor binding assays are performed on the linker itself.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays are not directly performed on Gly-Gly-Gly-PEG2-azide as it is a linker. However, the final ADC molecules synthesized using this linker are tested in cell-based assays. Typically, cancer cell lines expressing the target antigen are treated with the ADC, and cell viability is assessed using MTT or CellTiter-Glo assays. Antigen binding and internalization are measured by flow cytometry. These assays confirm the functional activity of the ADC. The linker itself is not tested in cell culture.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments are not performed with Gly-Gly-Gly-PEG2-azide itself. This compound is a synthetic building block used to construct ADCs. Once an ADC is synthesized, it may be tested in animal models, typically xenograft models in mice. Tumor-bearing mice are administered the ADC, and tumor growth inhibition, pharmacokinetics, and toxicity are evaluated. However, the intermediate itself is not administered to animals.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic properties are not applicable to Gly-Gly-Gly-PEG2-azide as it is a linker for ADC synthesis. The compound's molecular weight is 345.35. It is stored at 2-8°C in a refrigerator. Its solubility and stability are characterized to facilitate its use in chemical synthesis. The PEG2 and peptide components are designed to improve the hydrophilicity of the resulting ADC. No ADME studies are performed on this intermediate.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Toxicological data for Gly-Gly-Gly-PEG2-azide are not available as it is a research chemical intermediate. Standard laboratory safety precautions for handling chemical reagents should be followed. The compound is not intended for human or animal consumption. Its specific toxicity profile has not been established. Any toxicological assessment would be performed on the final ADC drug candidate, not on this synthetic precursor. It is handled as a potentially hazardous material.

  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
