Biotinylated Anti-CL2A (ADC linker) antibody (1H2) ; Rabbit mAb

CL2A is a crucial component in antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) therapy, acting as a chemical linker that connects a potent DNA topoisomerase I inhibitor, SN-38, to an antibody. Representing Cysteine-Linked 2-Aminoethyl, CL2A features a complex structure with a PEG8 chain, a triazole ring, a PABC-peptide, and a maleimide group. The maleimide group binds to a cysteine residue on the antibody, facilitating targeted drug delivery. Designed to release SN-38 in acidic cancer cell environments, CL2A induces DNA damage and cell death. This versatile linker is employed in ADCs targeting various antigens like Trop-2 or HER2, tailored to specific cancer types.
