DOTA-tris(acid)-amido-dPEG®23-maleimide, product number 11171, links a thiol-reactive maleimide group with the macrocyclic, bifunctional chelator 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7,10-tetraacetic acid (DOTA) through a medium-length, single molecular weight, discrete PEG (dPEG®) linker. The DOTA moiety is designed to chelate trivalent yttrium and trivalent elements in the lanthanide series. The maleimide group chemoselectively reacts with thiols at pH 6.5 – 7.5 in a click chemistry type of reaction.

Traditional PEG is a dispersed (Đ > 1) polymer. By contrast, Quanta BioDesign produces only single molecular weight (that is, discrete) PEG products (that is, Đ = 1). Our smaller dPEG® products avoid problems associated with large PEGs. The discrete character of our products simplifies analysis of the dPEG® product and of conjugates formed with dPEG® products. To learn more about the advantages of our products, see What is dPEG®? and Frequently Asked Questions.

DOTA is a highly popular, effective bifunctional chelator that is used in radiopharmaceutical applications that require trivalent isotopes of yttrium or lanthanides. The four acetate groups on the macrocycle are unprotected. Therefore, this DOTA compound should be conjugated to the target molecule at the end of the synthetic process when no further reactions will be carried out. To learn more, read DOTA-tris(TBE) or DOTA-tris(acid)? Choose wisely.

The maleimide group is widely used to conjugate molecules to free thiols or sulfhydryls. The very fast reaction between a maleimide group and a free thiol or sulfhydryl group is a classic example of the thiol-Michael addition reaction, which is a specific, click chemistry type of the Michael addition reaction. To learn more about Quanta BioDesign’s maleimide groups, please see Maleimide Reaction Chemistry.
