Properties
Description
Mannose-PEG-maleimide, known as maleimide-PEG-mannose, is a research-specific molecule formed by attaching mannose to a 550 Da PEG tether and a maleimide. It merges mannose's immune-targeting ability, PEG's biocompatibility, and maleimide's functionality.
Molecular Weight
PEG: 550 Da
Functional Group
Maleimide
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-maleimide can be used to quantify mannose-valency impacts on lectin binding avidity.
