Applications

Mitochondrial glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase inhibitor

Functions

A potent and cell permeable inhibitor of the mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (mGPDH), IC50=6.3 μM, which is selective over the cytosolic enzyme. It does not block pyruvate uptake into cells or mitochondria and has no direct effect on glycolysis in synaptosomes. This novel inhibitor is a unique tool which may be used to investigate the role of glycerol-3-phosphate metabolism in isolated and intact systems.

Application Procedures

First dissolved in DMSO up to 50 mg/ml, then diluted to aqueous buffer. Solutions in DMSO may be stored at -20°C for up to 2 months.
