Mal-PEG-DMG

Maleimide-poly(ethylene glycol)-Dimyristoylglycerol (MAL-PEG-DMG) is an amphiphilic PEG lipid combining a dimyristoylglycerol anchor with a defined-length hydrophilic PEG segment. Discrete chain lengths with different degrees of polymerization are available. The maleimide can add to cysteine thiols or other thiolated modules, providing a handle for conjugation at thiol sites. It can be used to construct interfaces in membrane-related systems and nanoparticle formulations, enabling comparisons of anchoring structure, hydrophilic chain length, terminal functionality, and formulation dispersion.
