Properties
Description
FA-PEG-mannose, alternatively called mannose-PEG-folic acid, is a synthetic reagent prepared by attaching mannose via a 20 kDa PEG spacer to a folic acid termination. This hybrid combines mannose's specificity, PEG's hydrophilicity, and folic acid's receptor affinity.
Molecular Weight
PEG: 20 kDa
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-folic acid can be used to design bioorthogonal prodrug activation systems using tetrazine-responsive linkers.
