Mal-amido-PEG5-alkyne is a PEG linker containing a maleimide group and an alkyne. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. The alkyne group can react with azide-bearing compounds or biomolecules via copper catalyzed azide-alkyne Click Chemistry to yield a stable triazole linkage. The maleimide group will react with a thiol group to form a covalent bond, enabling the connection of biomolecule with a thiol. Reagent grade, for research purpose.
