Background

Blasticidin S HCl is an antibiotic inhibiting protein synthesis [1].

Blasticidin S is isolated from Streptomyces griseochromogenes and inhibits protein synthesis in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

Blasticidin S HCl is an antibiotic inhibiting protein synthesis. In mouse leukemia L5178Y cells, blasticidin S inhibited protein synthesis and caused the degradation of presumptive mRNA [1]. Also, blasticidin S inhibited ribonuclease P activity from Dictyostelium discoideum and inhibited tRNA maturation in a dose dependent way [2]. In S. cerevisiae, blasticidin S inhibited protein synthesis induced by galactose. In Aspergillus parasiticus, blasticidin S inhibited aflatoxin production without inhibition of fungal growth. In Aspergillus flavus, blasticidin S significantly reduced aflatoxin biosynthetic enzymes [3]. Blasticidin S efficiently bound Cu2+ ions and protected DNA from metal-induced damage [4]. Blasticidin S enhanced the binding of tRNA to the P site of the large ribosomal subunit and slowed spontaneous intersubunit rotation. Blasticidin S inhibited peptide bond formation and peptidyl-tRNA hydrolysis [5].

Calculation results:

Working concentration: mg/ml;

Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.
3. All of the above co-solvents are available for purchase on the GlpBio website.
