2H-Pyran, tetrahydro-2-[(28-phenyl-3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27-nonaoxaoctacos-1-yl)oxy]-

Biological Activity

Benzyl-PEG9-THP is a PEG-based PROTAC linker that can be used in the synthesis of PROTACs[1]. 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].
