(2-Pyridyldithio)-PEG4 acid is a four-unit cleavable polyethylene glycol (PEG) linker specifically designed for the synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs)[1]. It serves as a crucial component in the conjugation of antibodies and drugs, enabling targeted drug delivery and enhanced therapeutic efficacy. This linker possesses a (2-pyridyldithio) group at one end, facilitating the attachment of the linker to the specific site on the antibody molecule. The PEG4 chain provides the necessary flexibility and biocompatibility for optimal drug release while maintaining stability throughout the circulation in the body. Ultimately, (2-Pyridyldithio)-PEG4 acid is instrumental in the development and advancement of ADCs, a promising approach in cancer therapy.
Pomalidomide-amido-C4-amido-PEG2-C2-NH-Boc is a novel synthesized conjugate compound functioning as an E3 ligase ligand-linker in PROTAC technology. This compound incorporates a Pomalidomide-derived cereblon ligand, which binds selectively to the E3 ligase cereblon, and a 2-unit PEG linker, which provides stability and flexibility to the conjugate.
