Anti-Lewis-Y (clone BR 96)-mc-Dox ADC (CAT#: ADC-005LZY)

• Antibody Overview
• Chimeric anti Lewis-Y mAb,BR 96

• Clone
• BR 96

• Linker
• mc (maleimidocaproyl)

• Linker Class/Description
• Class: Noncleavable linker
  Description: Noncleavable linker is considered noncleavable-meaning linker cleavage, and payload release does not depend on the differential properties between the plasma and some cytoplasmic compartments. Instead, the release of the cytotoxic drug is postulated to occur after internalization of the ADC via antigen-mediated endocytosis and delivery to lysosomal compartment, where the antibody is degraded to the level of amino acids through intracellular proteolytic degradation

• Drug
• Doxorubicin

• Drug Class/Description
• Class: Doxorubicin
  Description: Doxorubicin is the generic name for the trade name drug, Adriamycin®, as well as, Rubex®, which is a type of anti-cancer chemotherapy drug called an anthracycline. Doxorubicin works by blocking an enzyme called TopoisomeraseⅡthat cancer cells need to divide and grow.

• Introduction
• The Lewis histo-blood group system comprises a set of fucosylated glycosphingolipids that are synthesized by exocrine epithelial cells and circulate in body fluids. The glycosphingolipids function in embryogenesis, tissue differentiation, tumor metastasis, inflammation, and bacterial adhesion. They are secondarily absorbed to red blood cells giving rise to their Lewis phenotype. This gene is a member of the fucosyltransferase family, which catalyzes the addition of fucose to precursor polysaccharides in the last step of Lewis antigen biosynthesis. It encodes an enzyme with alpha(1,3)-fucosyltransferase and alpha(1,4)-fucosyltransferase activities. Mutations in this gene are responsible for the majority of Lewis antigen-negative phenotypes. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
