Anti-EGFR-EDC/NHS-methotrexate ADC (CAT#: ADC-060LZY)

• Antibody Overview
• Cetuximab(Chimeric Human-Murine anti EGFR IgG1)

• Antibody Isotype
• IgG1

• Linker
• EDC/NHS

• Linker Class/Description
• Class: Chemically cleavable Linker-Acid-labile linker
  Description: Acid-labile linkers, belonging to chemically cleavable linkers, are designed based on a pH-dependent release mechanism and remain intact during systemic circulation in the blood's neutral pH environment (pH 7.3–7.5) but to undergo hydrolysis and release drug once the ADC is internalized into mildly acidic endosomal (pH 5.0–6.5) and lysosomal (pH 4.5–5.0) compartments of the cell.

• Drug
• MTX

• Drug Class/Description
• Class: methotrexate
  Description: Methotrexate (MTX) and formerly known as amethopterin, is an antimetabolite and antifolate drug.
  It is used in treatment of cancer, autoimmune diseases, ectopic pregnancy, and for the induction of medical abortions. It acts by inhibiting the metabolism of folic acid

• Introduction
• The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is a member of the protein kinase superfamily. This protein is a receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family. EGFR is a cell surface protein that binds to epidermal growth factor. Binding of the protein to a ligand induces receptor dimerization and tyrosine autophosphorylation and leads to cell proliferation. Mutations in this gene are associated with lung cancer. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
