Application

This is a cathepsin cleavable linker used in the construction of antibody drug conjugates (ADC & Bioconjugation).

Features and Benefits

Val-Cit-OH is a cleavable ADC linker used in the synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates (ADC). The Val-Cit is specifically cleaved by cathepsin B. The Boc group can be deprotected under acidic conditions to generate a free amine group. As this enzyme is only present in the lysosome the ADC payload will be release only in the cell.

Specific modifications to carriers to achieve targeted delivery of chemotherapeutics into malignant tissues are a critical point for efficient diagnosis and therapy. In this case, bovine serum albumin (BSA) was conjugated with cetuximab-valine-citrulline (vc)-doxorubicin (DOX) to target epidermal growth factor
