Overview

Chemical structure: aminoglycoside Aminoglycosides are the most widely used class of antibiotics that target ribosome. Hygromycin B is an aminocyclitol antibiotic. The organism, S. hygroscopicus contains phosphotransferase (HPH) activity, which phosphorylates hygromycin B helping in autoimmunity against the toxic effects of the drug.


Application

Hygromycin B antibiotic was used for hygro resistance effect in the following cells: transfected 293T cells with mixture of plasmids at 160 μg/ml. MCF-7 ALOX12 cells at 150 μg/ml. MSCV Luciferase PGK-hygro plasmid. STAT3 Reporter HeLa Stable Cell Line (stably transfected with Luciferase gene under the control of STAT3 promoter) maintained in DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS. Hygromycin B is an aminoglycoside antibiotic isolated from Streptomyces hygroscopicus. It has been used to study protein synthesis at the level of the 70S ribosome translocation and mRNA template misreading, as an antiviral agent by selectively penetrating cells rendered permeable by virus infection and inhibiting translation, and as a selection agent for hygromycin resistance gene transformed cells. It is recommended for use as a selection agent at 100-800 μg/mL, specifically at 100 μg/mL for prokaryotes, 200 μg/mL for lower eukaryotes and 150-400 μg/mL for higher eukaryotes.
