Overview

Mithramycin A is an antibiotic DNA/RNA polymerase and DNA binding transcriptional inhibitor observed to facilitate TNF-α and Fas-ligand induced apoptosis. As a DNA binding transcriptional inhibitor, mithramycin A binds to GC rich sequences located in the minor groove of DNA and is noted to be reversible and Mg2+ dependent. Additionally reported to a block transcriptional activation of the SV40 promoter via competitive binding against Sp1 transcription factor to GC rich areas in the early promoter. Mithramycin A is noted to supress TNF-α induced expression of fractalkine (CX3CL1) mRNA in a dose-dependent manner and to act as an effective differentiation agent of HL60 promyelocytic leukemia cells
A polymerase inhibitor that binds to GC rich sequences located in the minor groove of DNA;DNA binding fluorescent dye. Until 2000 it was used to reduce high levels of plasma calcium; Used as an antineoplastic agent

Note
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
