Description

General description

A cell-permeable tetracyclic diterpene antibiotic. Cell synchronization agent. Blocks the cell cycle at the early S-phase. Specific, non-competitive and reversible inhibitor of DNA polymerase α and δ in eukaryotic cells and in some viruses of animal origin. Potentiates apoptosis induced by arabinosyl nucleosides in leukemia cell lines. Also induces apoptosis in HeLaS3 cells, but inhibits vincristine (>Cat. No. 677181)-induced apoptosis in the p53-negative human prostate cancer cell line PC-3.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cell permeable: yes

Primary Target
DNA polymerase α and δ

Reversible: yes

Packaging

Packaged under inert gas

Physical form

A 30 mM (1 mg/98 µL) sterile-filtered solution of Aphidicolin (Cat. No. 178273) in DMSO.

Preparation Note

Following initial thaw, aliquot and freeze (-70°C). Aliquots are stable for up to 6 months at -70°C. Use only fresh DMSO for further dilutions.
