| Selective inhibitor of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinases, MEK-1 and MEK-2, with 100-fold higher potency than PD 98059, but is, at most, a weak inhibitor of PKC, Raf, ERK, JNK, MEKK, MKK-3, MKK-4/SEK, MKK-6, Abl, Cdk2 and Cdk4. U0126 is an inhibitor of AP-1 transactivation in cell-based reporter assays. | | | Catalog # | M2865-50A | | In aqueous and certain organic solvents M2865-50A exists as an equilibrium mixture of 2 isomers which cannot be permanently separated. The 2 individual isomers have equivalent biological activity because they give rise to the same equilibrium mixture of isomes in aqueous solutions. | | Solubility | Soluble in DMSO at 200mg/ml. Very poorly soluble in ethanol and water. Maximum solubility in plain water is estimated to be about 10-50uM. | | Melting Point | 156-159ºC | | Storage and Stability | May be stored at RT for short-term only. Long-term storage is recommended at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap. | | CAS Number | 109511-58-2 | | Molecular Formula | C18H16N6S2 | | Molecular Weight | 380.49 | | Purity | ~99% (HPLC, TLC) | | Form | Supplied as a white powder. | | | Important Note | This product as supplied is intended for research use only, not for use in human, therapeutic or diagnostic applications without the expressed written authorization of United States Biological. |
