Benzomalvin A is a fungal metabolite produced by Penicillium.{43022,38039} It inhibits yeast α-glucosidase in vitro (IC50 = 383.2 μM).{43022} In vivo, benzomalvin A (3.1-31.6 mg/kg) decreases plasma glucose levels in mice following administration of sucrose. It also decreases the plasma glucose postprandial peak in nicotinamide-streptozotocin-induced hyperglycemic mice when administered at a dose of 10 mg/kg. Benzomalvin A also acts as an antagonist of neurokinin-1 (NK1) receptors, inhibiting binding of substance P (Item No. 24035) to guinea pig, rat, and human NK1 (Kis = 12, 42, and 43 μM, respectively).{38039}

  • 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}
