Description

General description

A cell-permeable dibromocarbazole-piperazinyl derivative that displays anti-apoptotic properties. Reported to effectively block Bid-induced cytochrome c release from HeLa cell mitochondria (~80% inhibition at 5 µM) by inhibiting Bax channel activity.

A cell-permeable dibromocarbazolo-piperazinyl derivative that displays anti-apoptotic properties. Effectively blocks Bid-induced cyctochrome c release from HeLa cell mitochondria (~80% inhibition at 5 µM) by inhibiting Bax channel-forming activity (IC₅₀ = 520 nM in a liposome channel assay).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Cell permeable: yes

Primary Target
Bax-channel forming activity

Product does not compete with ATP.

Reversible: no

Target IC₅₀: 520 nM blocks Bid-induced cyctochrome c release from HeLa cell mitochondria by inhibiting Bax channel-forming activity in a liposome channel assay

Packaging

Packaged under inert gas

Physical form

Supplied as a trifluoroacetate salt.

Preparation Note

Following reconstitution aliquot and freeze (-20°C). Stock solutions are stable for up to 3 months at -20°C.
