General description
Puromycin′s structural similarity to the amino acid-bearing end of tRNA allows it to enter the ribosome during protein synthesis, bind to the nascent polypeptide chain, and halt chain elongation. Widely used in cell culture, puromycin serves as a selective agent for cells that have been transformed with a gene conferring resistance to puromycin.
Application
Biochem/physiol Actions
Mode of Resistance: Puromycin acetyltransferase is an effective resistance gene.
Antimicrobial Spectrum: This product is active against gram-positive microorganisms, less active against acid-fast bacilli and more weakly active against gram-negative microorganisms. Puromycin can prevent growth of bacteria, protozoa, algae and mammalian cells and acts quickly, killing 99% of cells within 2 days.
Features and Benefits
- High-quality antibiotic suitable for multiple research applications
- Antibiotic and protein synthesis inhibitor
- Effective against prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells
- Inhibits protein synthesis by interfering with RNA function
- Commonly used as a selective agent in cell biology research
