Description:
DSPE-PEG-Mal (1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-(polyethylene glycol)-maleimide) is a synthetic amphiphilic compound commonly used in bioconjugation and drug delivery applications. It features a hydrophobic tail derived from distearoyl phospholipid, which facilitates membrane incorporation, and a hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) segment that enhances solubility and biocompatibility. The maleimide functional group allows for specific thiol-reactive conjugation, making it useful for attaching biomolecules such as proteins or peptides. With an average molecular weight of approximately 2000 Da, this compound is designed to provide a balance between hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity, promoting stability in aqueous environments. DSPE-PEG-Mal is often utilized in the formulation of liposomes and nanoparticles, enhancing their circulation time and targeting capabilities in therapeutic applications. Its unique properties make it a valuable tool in the fields of nanomedicine and biotechnology, particularly for targeted drug delivery and the development of diagnostic agents.
