Hyperphosphorylation of the tau protein leads to its aggregation and formation of neurofibrillary tangles, a hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease and other tauopathic, neurodegenerative disorders. Tau is also dynamically modified by the addition and cleavage of O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) moieties, which is mediated in part by O-GlcNAcase. Levels of O-GlcNAcylated proteins from Alzheimer’s disease brain extracts are decreased as compared to that in controls, suggesting that impaired brain glucose metabolism may contribute to pathogenesis.{16842} Thiamet G is a potent and selective inhibitor of O-GlcNAcase that demonstrates a Ki value of 21 nM.{16935} It increases cellular O-GlcNAc-modified protein levels (EC50 = 30 nM) and blocks phosphorylation of tau protein both in cultured PC-12 cells and in rats (200 mg/kg/day).{16935} Thiamet G is the first highly potent O-GlcNAcase inhibitor known to be orally bioavailable and effectively cross the blood brain barrier.{16935}

    PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin (sodium salt) – 10 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) – 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}
