Capabilities & Facilities
3-(methylsulfonyl)-2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl 4-((5-nitropyridin-2-yl)disulfanyl)pentanoate is a heterobifunctional ADC linker designed for thiol-reactive conjugation. The 5-nitropyridin-2-yl disulfide moiety enables selective payload release under reductive tumor conditions, while the methylsulfonyl-activated NHS ester facilitates efficient coupling to antibody amines. The pentanoate spacer provides flexibility and reduces steric interference in ADC linker design.
In ADC payload applications, the disulfide group allows controlled cytotoxin release inside target cells. The linker maintains solubility, preserves antibody-antigen interaction, and supports consistent drug-to-antibody ratios (DAR) and reproducible pharmacokinetics.
3-(methylsulfonyl)-2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl 4-((5-nitropyridin-2-yl)disulfanyl)pentanoate is compatible with a variety of cytotoxic payloads, including auristatins and DNA-damaging agents. Its stability in plasma and reductive cleavage in the tumor microenvironment ensure targeted payload delivery.
This linker is applied in ADC research requiring reliable thiol-specific conjugation, controlled payload release, and reproducible synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates for oncology therapeutics.
