Résumé

Dual-labeled biomolecules constitute a new generation of bioconjugates with promising applications in therapy and diagnosis. Unfortunately, the development of these new families of biologics is hampered by the technical difficulties associated with their construction. In particular, achieving site-specific labeling of proteins is critical as the number and position of payloads can have a dramatic impact on the pharmacokinetic of the bioconjugate. Here, we introduce dichloro-tetrazine as a trivalent platform for the selective double-modification of proteins on cysteine residues. This strategy is applied to the dual-labeling of albumin with a macrocyclic chelator for nuclear imaging and a fluorescent probe for fluorescence imaging.
