UN-No:
Non-Hazardous - /

Furamidine is a cell-permeable inhibitor of protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) that is selective for PRMT1 over PRMT5, PRMT6, and PRMT4/coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase 1 (CARM1) (IC50s = 9.4, 166, 283, and >400 μM, respectively).{38288} In vitro, furamidine (20 μM) inhibits Aly protein methylation in HEK293T cells and growth of several leukemia cell lines. It inhibits tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase (Tdp1) activity on both single- and double-stranded DNA substrates with concentrations in the low micromolar range, but it is more potent against a duplex DNA substrate.{38289} Furamidine inhibits growth of T. brucei, the parasite that causes sleeping sickness, with IC50 values of 1.5 to 37 nM across various strains.{38290} It inhibits the T. brucei P2 aminopurine transporter (Ki = 1.2 μM).{38290} It also binds to AT-rich DNA sequences in trypanosome kinetoplast DNA.{38292,38293,38291}

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

    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}
