Capabilities & Facilities
Tetrazine-PEG4-amine hydrochloride is a highly versatile ADC linker designed for advanced antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) construction and targeted bioconjugation applications. Featuring a tetrazine reactive group, a PEG4 spacer, and a terminal amine hydrochloride, this linker enables bioorthogonal inverse-electron-demand Diels–Alder (IEDDA) reactions for rapid and site-specific attachment of ADC cytotoxins. The PEG4 spacer enhances solubility, flexibility, and reduces steric hindrance during conjugation. In ADC linker design, Tetrazine-PEG4-amine hydrochloride preserves antibody structural integrity while providing a reactive handle for modular conjugation strategies and efficient intracellular payload delivery.
In payload conjugation applications, Tetrazine-PEG4-amine hydrochloride is compatible with a variety of ADC cytotoxins, including microtubule inhibitors, DNA-damaging agents, and other potent therapeutic molecules. The tetrazine group reacts rapidly and selectively with trans-cyclooctene (TCO)-functionalized payloads, enabling high-yield, site-specific conjugation under mild conditions. The PEG4 spacer improves solubility and pharmacokinetics, while the terminal amine offers additional versatility for secondary modifications or multi-step conjugation strategies. This linker allows researchers to construct homogeneous, stable ADCs with predictable intracellular payload release and optimized therapeutic performance.
From an application perspective, Tetrazine-PEG4-amine hydrochloride is widely applied in oncology-focused ADC research, protein bioconjugation studies, and modular drug delivery system development. Its combination of tetrazine reactivity, hydrophilic PEG4 spacer, and amine functionality ensures site-specific and efficient conjugation while preserving antibody function. Utilizing this linker in ADC design enables the generation of highly customizable, stable linker-payload conjugates capable of precise tumor targeting and controlled payload release within the cellular environment.
