Properties
Description
Mannose-PEG-epoxide (epoxide-PEG-mannose) is a synthetic molecule where mannose is linked to an epoxide group using a 550 Da PEG tether, leveraging mannose's immune-targeting, PEG's solubility, and epoxide's function.
Molecular Weight
PEG: 550 Da
Form
Solid or viscous liquid
Impurities
No visible impurities to the naked eye.
Solubility
This product is soluble in most organic solvents, such as DCM, DMF, DMSO, and THF, and exhibits excellent solubility in water.
Applications
Mannose-PEG-epoxide can be used to engineer amino-PEG spacers to minimize steric hindrance in receptor binding.
