Eliglustat-d15 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of eliglustat (Item No. 21487) by GC- or LC-MS. Eliglustat is an inhibitor of glucosylceramide synthase (IC50 = 40 nM for inhibition of glucosylceramide production in K562 cells).{41053} It is selective for glucosylceramide synthase over α-glucosidase I and II, α-1,6-glucosidase, lysosomal glucocerebrosidase, non-lysosomal glucosylceramidase, sucrase, and maltase (IC50s = >10 µM for all). It decreases cell surface levels of the gangliosides GM1 and GM3 in K562 and B16/F10 cells with IC50 values of 24 and 29 nM, respectively. Eliglustat (150 mg/kg per day) decreases glucosylceramide levels in the liver and lungs of D409V/null mice, a model of Gaucher disease. Formulations containing eliglustat have been used in the treatment of type 1 Gaucher disease.

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}

1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-PC (DPPC) is a zwitterionic glycerophospholipid commonly used in the formation of lipid monolayers, bilayers, and liposomes for use in a variety of applications.{14480,24261,14478,14479} It has been used in the formation of proteoliposomes for implantation of γ-glutamyl transpeptidase into human erythrocyte membranes.{14478} Incorporation of glycosphingolipid antigens into DPPC-containing liposomes increases the immunogenicity of the antigens in mice.{14479}

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.
