Pralatrexate is a dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitor (Ki = 13.4 pM) and antifolate.{39422} It inhibits growth of CCRF-CEM acute lymphocytic leukemia cells (IC50 = 0.04 μM), MDA-468, SK-BR-3, and ZR-75-1 breast cancer cells (IC50s = 0.11, 0.28, and 0.26 μM, respectively), and SK-LC8 and SK-LC16 non-small cell lung cancer cells (NSCLC; IC50s = 0.42 and 0.11 μM, respectively). In vivo, pralatrexate increases median survival from 21 to 40 days when administered in 4 doses of 15 mg/kg over 11 days in an H9 T cell lymphoma mouse xenograft model.{39423} Pralatrexate is transported into cells via the reduced folate carrier (RFC) and undergoes polyglutamation by folylpolyglutamate synthetase (FPGS) to a greater extent than methotrexate (Item No. 13960) or pemetrexed (Item No. 14269).{39424,39425} Formulations containing pralatrexate have been used in the treatment of relapsed or refractory peripheral T cell lymphoma.

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 50 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}
