Product Information
11-Azido-undecanoic acid is a reactive molecule that is used in biotherapeutics. It has shown the ability to enter cells and bind to cytosolic and intracellular targets, including amide, fatty acid, or peptide targets. 11-Azido-undecanoic acid has been studied in clinical trials for cancer treatment and has been found to be safe. The uptake of azides by cells is mediated by the presence of an amide group. This compound binds to the amide groups on proteins in the cell membrane and replaces a hydrogen atom with an azide group. This substitution leads to changes in the properties of the protein that can lead to cell death.
