Link
Term · Chemistry · MLC-T-CHM-006646
A covalent bond or a sequence of atoms that connects two distinct chemical entities within a larger molecular structure. This connection can join monomer units in a polymer chain, or attach a functional group to a substrate. The nature of the link, such as its length and flexibility, influences the overall properties of the conjugate.
