Biochem/physiol Actions

Mode of Action: Translation inhibition in eukaryotes resulting in cell growth arrest and cell death. CHX is widely used for the selection of CHX-resistant strains of yeast and fungi, controlled inhibition of protein synthesis for detection of short-lived proteins and super-induction of protein expression, and apoptosis induction or facilitation of apoptosis induction by death receptors.

Activity Spectrum: Active against yeast and fungi like Candida, Aspergillus, Saccharomyces, Penicillium

Increased global protein synthesis and selective translation of mRNAs encoding proteins contributing to malignancy is common in cancer cells. This is often associated with elevated expression of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4 (eIF4E), the rate-limiting factor of cap-dependent translation initiation.
