As a versatile reaction for bioconjugation, Cu(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) has enormous potential in the synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). In order to optimize CuAAC-based ADC synthesis, we characterized kinetically different formulation processes by mimicking ADC synthesis using small molecules and subsequently revealed unique kinetic behaviors of different combinations of alkyne and azide conditions. Our results indicate that under ADC synthesis conditions, for ...[more]
