alpha-[2-[[3-(2,5-Dihydro-2,5-dioxo-1H-pyrrol-1-yl)-1-oxopropyl]amino]ethyl]-omega-[3-[(2,5-dioxo-1-pyrrolidinyl)oxy]-3-oxopropoxy]poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl)

Description

Mal-amido-PEG24-NHS is a PEG linker containing a maleimide group and an NHS ester. The hydrophilic PEG spacer increases solubility in aqueous media. The NHS ester can be used to label the primary amines (-NH2) of proteins, amine-modified oligonucleotides, and other amine-containing molecules. The maleimide group will react with a thiol group to form a covalent bond, enabling the connection of biomolecule with a thiol.
