Anti-FR-S-S-Dox ADC (CAT#: ADC-170LZY)

• Antibody Overview
• Anti-folate receptor (FR) Antibody

• Linker
• disulfide ("S-S") linker

• Linker Class/Description
• Class: Chemically cleavable Linker-Disulfide Linker
  Description: Disulfide Linkers are extensively exploited as a chemically labile linkage. Since the release of disulfide-linked drugs requires a cytoplasmic thiol cofactor, such as glutathione (GSH). Disulfides maintain stable at physiological pH and only when ADCs are internalized inside cells, the cytosol provides reducing environment including intracellular enzyme protein disulfide isomerase, or similar enzymes, drugs can be released.

• 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 protein encoded by this gene is a member of the folate receptor family. Members of this gene family bind folic acid and its reduced derivatives, and transport 5-methyltetrahydrofolate into cells. This gene product is a secreted protein that either anchors to membranes via a glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol linkage or exists in a soluble form. Mutations in this gene have been associated with neurodegeneration due to cerebral folate transport deficiency. Due to the presence of two promoters, multiple transcription start sites, and alternative splicing, multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
