Biological Activity
Description
In Vitro
Methyltetrazine-PEG4-amine hydrochloride is a bifunctional linker commonly used in bioorthogonal labeling and antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). Methyltetrazine-PEG4-amine hydrochloride consists of four functional moieties: the methyltetrazine group with catalyst-free ultrafast click chemistry activity, PEG4 which enhances water solubility and flexibility while reducing steric hindrance, an amine group with amide coupling activity, and hydrochloride which improves the storage and transportation stability of the overall reagent[1].

EdU Incorporation Assay (Click Chemistry-Based DNA Synthesis Measurement)
The EdU incorporation assay measures DNA synthesis by adding the thymidine analog 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine to cells or tissues, where it is incorporated into newly synthesized DNA during S phase. Incorporated EdU is detected by copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition, in which a fluorescent azide covalently reacts with the ethynyl group on EdU, allowing S-phase cells to be detected by fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, or high-content imaging. EdU detection does not require DNA denaturation or anti-BrdU antibody access, which preserves sample structure and improves compatibility with immunostaining and multiparameter cytometry compared with BrdU-based detection. EdU can be cytotoxic in a cell-type- and exposure-dependent manner, so pulse duration, concentration, and continuous-labeling designs should be validated for each cell type.
