چکیده

The direct synthesis of dithiophenol maleimide functional polymers by living radical polymerisation is described without the need for protecting group chemistry. The synthesised polymers have been successfully employed as disulfide bridging agents for salmon calcitonin when used in equimolar quantities, negating the requirement for complex purification strategies, traditionally associated with peptide bioconjugation.

Aryloxymaleimides for cysteine modification, disulfide bridging and the dual functionalization of disulfide bonds.

Tuning the properties of maleimide reagents holds significant promise in expanding the toolbox of available methods for bioconjugation. Herein we describe aryloxymaleimides which represent 'next generation maleimides' of attenuated reactivity, and demonstrate their ability to enable new methods for protein modification at disulfide bonds.

Homogeneous antibody fragment conjugation by disulfide bridging introduces ‘spinostics'

A major obstacle to the efficient production of antibody conjugates for therapy and diagnosis is the non-ideal performance of commonly used chemical methods for the attachment of effector-molecules to the antibody of interest. Here we demonstrate that this limitation can be simply addressed using 3,4-substituted maleimides to bridge and thus functionalize disulfide bonds to generate homogeneous...

Fluorescently tagged polymer bioconjugates from protein derived macroinitiators.

BSA and lysozyme have been transformed into macroinitiators for living radical polymerisation and used to produce well-defined bioconjugates which can be fluorescently labelled providing a versatile strategy for the preparation of bioconjugates which is complementary to traditional PEGylation.

Recent developments in atom transfer radical polymerization initiators for development of polymer-protein bioconjugates

Article info: Received: 23 January 2013 Accepted: 5 February 2013 ABSTRACT One of the major challenges in modern synthetic polymer chemistry is to synthesize end defined polymers of different end functionality with predetermined uniform molecular weight. End functionalized polymers/copolymers basically in block and grafting form are having several potential applications in biomedical areas in t...

Functional native disulfide bridging enables delivery of a potent, stable and targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC).

Herein we report the use of next generation maleimides (NGMs) for the construction of a potent antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) via functional disulfide bridging. The linker has excellent stability in blood serum and the ADC, armed with monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), shows excellent potency and cancer cell selectivity in vitro.
