Methotrexate PEG derivatives are a class of bioactive PEGs that can be used to for drug discovery or bioassay development. Methotrexate, also called MTX, amethopterin, is an antimetabolite and antifolate drug. It is used in treatment of cancer, autoimmune diseases, ectopic pregnancy, and for the induction of medical abortions. It acts by inhibiting the metabolism of folic acid.
