| Description | Azido-PEG5-S-methyl ethanethioate is a polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based linker utilized for the synthesis of proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs). |
| In vitro | 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]. |
| Synonyms | Azido-PEG5-S-methyl ethanethioate |
