In vitro study | PROTACs contain two different ligands connected by a linker; one is a ligand for an E3 ubiquitin ligase and the other is for the target protein. PROTACs exploit the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system to selectively degrade target proteins. ADCs are comprised of an antibody to which is attached an ADC cytotoxin through an ADC linker. |
biological activity | Azido-PEG3-maleimide is a PROTAC linker, belonging to the PEG class, which can be used to synthesize PROTAC molecules. Azido-PEG3-maleimide is also a cleavable ADC linker containing 3 units of PEG, which can be used to synthesize antibody conjugated drugs (ADC). |
