DOPE-PEG-COOH (MW 2000) is a PEG-based PROTAC linker. DOPE-PEG-COOH (MW 2000) can be used in the synthesis of PROTACs. DOPE-PEG-COOH (MW 2000) can be used for drug delivery, gene transfection and vaccine delivery.
PROTACs contain two different ligands connected by a linker; one is a ligand for an E3 ubiquitin ligase and the other is for the target protein. PROTACs exploit the intracellular ubiquitin-proteasome system to selectively degrade target proteins[1].
