  1. Abstract:

    A flexible, trifunctional poly(ethylene glycol)-succinamide-Lysine-Lysine-maleimide (PEG-SU-Lys-Lysmal) linker was employed to simultaneously allow biotin tagging and cell-surface targeting through an integrin alpha(4)beta(1)-binding peptidomimetic that was regiospecifically conjugated to an IgG1-derived Fc fragment with an engineered C-terminal selenocysteine residue. The resulting antibody derivative mediates Fc receptor binding by virtue of the Fc protein and selectively targets cancer cells expressing human integrin alpha(4)beta(1). The PEG-SU-Lys-Lys-mal linker may have general utility as an organic tether for the construction of antibody-drug conjugates. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
