DAz-2 is a cell-permeable chemical probe used to detect cysteine oxidation in proteins. Redox-sensitive cysteine residues in proteins may function as sensors of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and also serve as molecular switches, activating or deactivating proteins, following a change in oxidation state. Modification of protein function through the reversible oxidation of cysteine is emerging as a biologically relevant signal transduction mechanism. Sulfenic acid is the initial oxidation product of cysteine by relatively mild oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide. Sulfenic acid can be reduced back to the free thiol or be further oxidized to sulfinic and sulfonic acids.{16654} DAz-2 is a cell-permeable chemical probe that reacts specifically with sulfenic acid-modified proteins.{17444} The azido group of DAz-2 provides a method for selective conjugation to phosphine- or alkynyl- derivatized reagents, such as biotin or various fluorophores, for subsequent analysis of the labeled proteins. Use of DAz-2 in HeLa cells followed by Staudinger ligation to biotin and subsequent LC-MS/MS analysis, led to the identification of 193 sulfenic acid-modified proteins having a diverse range of functions.{17444}

    Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) – 500 mg

    The tetracycline repressor (TetR) is a transcriptional regulator which normally binds tightly to its palindromic tetO operator DNA, blocking gene expression.{17508} Tet causes the repressor to dissociate from the DNA, allowing transcription to occur. A novel reverse TetR (revTetR) requires tetracycline as a co-repressor to bind tetO and block transcription.{17509,17510} Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) is a powerful effector in both the tetracycline repressor (TetR) and reverse TetR (revTetR) systems, binding the Tet repressor 35-fold more strongly than Tet.{17508,17511} Moreover, anhydrotetracycline poorly binds the 30S ribosomal subunit, compared to Tet,{17512} so it does not act as a general inhibitor of translation and is a poor antibiotic. Perhaps related to this, the concentration of anhydrotetracycline that inhibits eukaryotic cell growth is more than a 1,000-fold above the dose that alters transcription through TetR.{17508}

    The maintenance of embryonic stem cells in culture typically requires feeder cells and various exogenous factors found in serum. Murine embryonic stem (mES) cells can be maintained in the absence of feeder cells and serum but require the leukemia inhibitor factor (LIF) and bone morphogenic protein (BMP) to prevent differentiation and promote self-renewal.
