mPEG8-CH2COOH is a PEG linker that is commonly used in pegylation, a process of attaching polyethylene glycol (PEG) molecules to other substances. PEG linkers like mPEG8-CH2COOH are widely used in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries to improve the properties of drugs and therapeutic molecules.
mPEG8-CH2COOH is part of the family of methoxy PEGs, which are known for their excellent solubility and biocompatibility. This specific linker has a molecular weight of 500 Da and contains eight ethylene glycol units. It has a carboxylic acid functional group at one end, allowing for easy conjugation with other molecules.
By attaching mPEG8-CH2COOH to drugs or therapeutic proteins, it can enhance their stability, prolong their circulation time in the body, reduce immunogenicity, and improve their pharmacokinetic properties. The hydrophilic nature of PEG also
