5′-Ethynyl-2′-deoxycytidine (EdC) is a nucleoside analog that inhibits replication of the herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1) KOS strain (ID50 = 0.2 μg/mL).{36600} It also reduces virus-induced cytopathogenicity of HSV-1, HSV-2, and vaccinia virus strains in PRK cells (MICs = 0.2-0.4, 1-2, and 5 μg/ml, respectively).{36599} EdC is an inhibitor of thymidylate synthetase, selectively reducing DNA incorporation of [1′,2′-3H]deoxyuridine over [CH3-3H]deoxythymidine in PRK cells (ID50s = 3 and 120 μg/ml, respectively). It inhibits thymidine synthetase in and reduces proliferation of L1210 cells, an effect which is reversed by addition of deoxythymidine (ID50s = 4.4 and 1,000 μg/ml, respectively). EdC has been used to monitor DNA synthesis and cellular replication via click chemistry conjugation of the ethynyl group to an azido group of various fluorochromes.{36601}

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 25 µg

    The PtdIn phosphates play an important role in the generation and transduction of intracellular signals.{8344,4096,14518} PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin is an affinity probe which allows the PIP3 to be detected through an interaction with the biotin ligand. This design allows PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin to serve as a general probe for any protein with a high affinity binding interaction with inositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PTEN, or PH-domain-containing proteins.

  • A powerful effector in both the TetR and revTetR transcriptional regulator systems

    Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) – 50 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}
