PC-Biotin-PEG4-PEG3-azide is an advanced ADC linker intermediate designed for targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) construction and precise bioconjugation applications. It combines a photoreactive (PC) group, biotin functionality, PEG4-PEG3 spacers, and a terminal azide, enabling dual conjugation strategies through photo-crosslinking and click chemistry. The PEG4-PEG3 spacers provide flexibility, reduce steric hindrance, and improve solubility of ADC payloads. In ADC linker design, PC-Biotin-PEG4-PEG3-azide supports site-specific attachment of cytotoxic payloads while preserving antibody stability and biological activity, allowing controlled intracellular delivery in tumor-targeted therapies.
In payload conjugation applications, PC-Biotin-PEG4-PEG3-azide is compatible with a broad spectrum of ADC cytotoxins, including microtubule inhibitors, DNA-targeting agents, and other potent therapeutic molecules. The photoreactive group enables covalent crosslinking upon UV activation, while the azide functionality allows bioorthogonal click chemistry for modular payload attachment. The biotin moiety provides additional utility for purification or detection. Together, the PEG4-PEG3 spacers enhance solubility, reduce aggregation, and facilitate homogeneous ADC construction, ensuring reproducible conjugation and optimized pharmacokinetics.
From an application perspective, PC-Biotin-PEG4-PEG3-azide is widely used in oncology-focused ADC research, protein bioconjugation studies, and multifunctional targeted drug delivery systems. Its combination of photoreactive chemistry, biotin labeling, and flexible PEG spacers enables precise, site-specific conjugation while maintaining antibody integrity. Leveraging this linker in ADC design allows researchers to create customizable, dual-functional linker-payload conjugates capable of efficient tumor targeting and selective intracellular payload release, tailored for complex therapeutic strategies.
