N3-PLL is an azide-functionalized derivative of poly(L-lysine) (PLL) containing reactive azide groups for bioorthogonal click chemistry conjugation. The cationic PLL backbone enables interaction with negatively charged biomolecules such as nucleic acids.

Key Properties

• Azide-functionalized cationic polymer
• Suitable for click chemistry reactions (CuAAC / SPAAC)
• Poly(L-lysine)-based biomaterial
• Water-soluble polymer system
• Reactive platform for modular bioconjugation

Applications

• Click chemistry bioconjugation
• Gene and nucleic acid delivery
• Surface functionalization
• Biomaterial and hydrogel engineering
• Nanoparticle modification
• Functional polymer synthesis

Functional Overview

The azide groups enable selective and efficient conjugation with alkyne-containing molecules, while the PLL backbone supports electrostatic complexation with negatively charged biomolecules.

Summary

N₃-PLL is a versatile azide-functional polymer widely used in click chemistry, gene delivery, and advanced biomaterial engineering applications.
