Product Description: Pyridostatin (RR82) TFA is a G-quadruplex DNA stabilizing agent (Kd=490 nM). Pyridostatin TFA promotes growth arrest in human cancer cells by inducing replication- and transcription-dependent DNA damage. Pyridostatin TFA targets the proto-oncogene Src. Pyridostatin TFA reduced SRC protein levels and SRC-dependent cellular motility in human breast cancer cells[1][2][3].
Applications: Cancer-programmed cell death
Formula: C33H33F3N8O7
