Herbimycin A is a benzoquinone ansamycin antibiotic from Streptomyces.{25103} It has herbicidal activity and acts as a cell-permeable inhibitor of non-receptor tyrosine kinases and the heat shock protein Hsp90.{25103,25105,25109} Herbimycin A inhibits Bcr-Abl with an IC50 value of 5 μM, a concentration that also effectively blocks Src, Yes, Fps, Ros, and ErbB but not protein kinases (PK) PKA, PKC, Rac, Myc, or Raf.{25105,25112} Presumably through its effects on tyrosine kinase signaling, herbimycin A also impairs endothelial cell proliferation in the context of angiogenesis, NF-κB activation, phosphorylation of phospholipase C-γ1, and eggshell formation in schistosome parasites.{25113,25111,25104,25110} Ansamycins, including herbimycin A and geldanamycin (Item No. 13355), bind Hsp90 and destabilize client proteins, including Src, Bcr-Abl, and ErbB2, leading to their ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation.{25109,15573}

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

    Anhydrotetracycline (hydrochloride) – 250 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}
