Application

This heterobifunctional, PEGylated crosslinker 20-Azido-3,6,9,12,15,18-hexaoxaicosanoic acid features a carboxyl group at one end and azide at the other. The hydrophillic PEG linker facilitates solubility in biological applications. This azido-PEG6-acid linker can be used for bioconjugation or as a building block for synthesis of small molecules, conjugates of small molecules and/or biomolecules, or other tool compounds for chemical biology and medicinal chemistry that require ligation. Examples of applications include its synthetic incorporation into antibody-drug conjugates or proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTAC® molecules) for targeted protein degradation.

A surface-bound cytomimetic assembly based on chemically selective and biocompatible immobilization and further modification of intact liposome is described. Liposomes carrying PEG-triphenylphosphine were chemoselectively immobilized onto azide-modified glass slides through Staudinger ligation, followed by modification with azide-modified lactose as a

Oligo(ethylene glycol)-linked light fluorous tags have been found to be optimal for conjugating to glycans for both high-yield enzymatic glycosylation reactions using one-pot multienzyme (OPME) systems and quick product purification using fluorous solid-phase extraction (FSPE) cartridges. The combination of OPME

Single-molecule imaging (SMI) has been widely utilized to investigate biomolecular dynamics and protein-protein interactions in living cells. However, multicolor SMI of intracellular proteins is challenging because of high background signals and other limitations of current fluorescence labeling approaches. To achieve

Currently, there is mounting evidence that intermolecular receptor-receptor interactions may result in altered receptor recognition, pharmacology and signaling. Heterobivalent ligands have been proven useful as molecular probes for confirming and targeting heteromeric receptors. This report describes the design and synthesis
