Overview
A cell-permeable cross-conjugated α,β-unsaturated dienone compound that induces caspase activation and apoptosis (IC50 = 1.76 and 1.6 µM in E1A and E1A/C9DN cells, respectively) via the apoptosome-independent mitochondrial pathway by selectively inhibiting ubiquitin isopeptidase activity (IC50 ~30 µM). The cellular expression of Bax and Bak is essential for G5-activated apoptosis, while Bcl-2 appears to protect cells against the effect of G5. G5 is more potent than, but otherwise exhibits similar pharmacological effects as, Ubiquitin Isopeptidase Inhibitor II, F6. At higher concentrations (5-10 µM), shown to induce necrosis in apoptosis-resistant MEFs-DKO.

Note
For maximum solubility we recommend this compound be dissolved in DMSO and then diluted with aqueous buffer of choice. This compound has a solubility of approximately 0.25 mg/ml in a 1:3 solution of DMSO:PBS (pH 7.2) using this method. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day. Also, DMSO solution needs to be purged with an inert gas for stability. Need more advice on solubility, usage and handling? Please visit our frequently asked questions (FAQ) page for more details.
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as nitrobenzenes. These are compounds containing a nitrobenzene moiety, which consists of a benzene ring with a carbon bearing a nitro group.
