Aminooxy-PEG2-alcohol is a non-cleavable PEG linker consisting of two units, utilized in the synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) [1]. This compound serves as a PEG-based PROTAC linker for the synthesis of PROTACs as well [2].

ADCs are comprised of an antibody to which is attached an ADC cytotoxin through an ADC linker[1]. PROTACs contain two different ligands connected by a linker; one is a ligand for an E3 ubiquitin ligase and the other is for the target protein. PROTACs exploit the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system to selectively degrade target proteins[2].
