Abstract

The present invention relates to conjugates in which a monovalent carboxylic ionophore is associated by means of a covalent bond with a macromolecule chosen from antibodies, fragments of antibodies, proteins such as peptide hormones or human proteins, and peptide ligands. It also relates to the activated ionophores. These conjugates are suitable as immunotoxin potentiators.
