OSu-PEG4-vc-PAB-DMEA-Duocarmycin SA is a potent ADC Cytotoxin with Linker designed for precise intracellular delivery of the Duocarmycin SA payload. The molecule incorporates a cleavable vc-PAB ADC Linker and a PEG4 spacer, enabling stability during systemic circulation and efficient release of the ADC payload inside target tumor cells. As a defined ADC Cytotoxin, it delivers the highly cytotoxic Duocarmycin SA to antigen-expressing cells, supporting DNA alkylation and cell apoptosis while maintaining controlled release through the linker system.

The mechanism of OSu-PEG4-vc-PAB-DMEA-Duocarmycin SA involves antibody-mediated targeting of tumor-associated antigens and subsequent internalization into malignant cells. Once inside the lysosome, the vc-PAB linker is cleaved by proteases, releasing the Duocarmycin SA payload. This selective intracellular release ensures the ADC payload exerts its DNA-alkylating activity specifically within tumor cells, reducing systemic exposure while maximizing cytotoxic efficiency. The PEG4 spacer contributes to solubility and flexibility, facilitating effective conjugation and functional activity.

OSu-PEG4-vc-PAB-DMEA-Duocarmycin SA supports stable conjugation to monoclonal antibodies through its OSu functional group, producing homogeneous ADC Cytotoxins with Linker suitable for reproducible cytotoxic performance. The cleavable linker and PEG4 spacer ensure predictable intracellular release and payload activity, allowing controlled delivery of the Duocarmycin SA moiety. Its chemical design provides both stability in circulation and precise intracellular activation, which is critical for ADC performance.

Applications of OSu-PEG4-vc-PAB-DMEA-Duocarmycin SA are focused on its role as a defined ADC payload-linker combination for constructing antibody-drug conjugates. The protease-sensitive vc-PAB linker and PEG4 spacer facilitate predictable intracellular release of Duocarmycin SA, supporting consistent DNA alkylation and cytotoxic activity. This reagent is essential for generating homogeneous ADC Cytotoxins with Linker that deliver potent, targeted cytotoxic effects for precision oncology applications.

What is OSu-PEG4-vc-PAB-DMEA-Duocarmycin SA?

OSu-PEG4-vc-PAB-DMEA-Duocarmycin SA is a duocarmycin-based cytotoxic agent equipped with a valine-citrulline (vc) cleavable linker, a para-aminobenzyl (PAB) self-immolative spacer, and a PEG4-DMEA solubilizing group. It is designed for conjugation to antibodies in ADCs.

Dear team, how does the OSu-PEG4-vc-PAB-DMEA-Duocarmycin SA linker function?

The vc dipeptide linker in OSu-PEG4-vc-PAB-DMEA-Duocarmycin SA is specifically cleaved by cathepsin B within lysosomes. After cleavage, the PAB spacer undergoes self-immolation, releasing the active duocarmycin payload for DNA alkylation.
