Description

General description
Mc-Val-Cit-PAB-Cl is a protease-cleavable linker used in antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Specifically, it contains the Val-Cit (valine-citrulline) dipeptide motif, which is cleaved by cathepsin proteases in the lysosome, coupled with a PAB (para-aminobenzyl) carbamate (PAB-Cl indicates PAB with a chloromethyl group) self-immolative spacer, and a terminal chloromethyl phenyl group for conjugation. It’s designed to link the cytotoxic payload (e.g. MMAE) to an antibody, forming an ADC such as MC-VC-PABC-MMAE.
Application

Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADCs): A linker component for ADCs, particularly with MMAE (Monomethyl auristatin E), forming ADCs with cytotoxic activity.
Cancer research: Used in preclinical ADC constructs against tumor cell lines. For example, anti-CD22-MC-VC-PABC-MMAE showing IC₅₀s in BJAB, WSU cell lines.
Bioconjugation chemistry: Useful as a linker for conjugating antibodies with small molecule payloads.

Features and Benefits

Cleavable by proteases (Val-Cit motif): Ensures drug release specifically in the target cell lysosome environment.
Self-immolative spacer (PAB-Cl): After proteolytic cleavage, the PAB spacer facilitates release of free drug.
Chloromethyl phenyl group: Provides a handle for stable conjugation chemistry to antibodies.

Other Notes

Protease cleavage: Val-Cit portion is recognized and cleaved by cathepsin enzymes (often cathepsin B) in lysosomes. Amide bond formation: The linker has amide bonds; payloads or antibodies typically conjugate via amine or thiol reactive groups.
Self-immolative release: After proteolytic trigger, the PAB spacer undergoes spontaneous decomposition to release the drug moiety.
Sensitivity: Must avoid conditions that degrade the Val-Cit or PAB moieties prematurely (e.g., perhaps strong acids, high temperatures, non-compatible buffers).
