Puromycin Dihydrochloride(Cat No.:R059263)is an aminonucleoside antibiotic derived from Streptomyces alboniger, widely used in research for its ability to inhibit protein synthesis. It mimics aminoacyl-tRNA, incorporating itself into growing polypeptide chains and causing premature chain termination, which effectively halts translation. Due to this mechanism, Puromycin is valuable in molecular biology studies, particularly for selecting cells with resistance markers in genetic experiments. Additionally, it has applications in studying cellular processes like apoptosis, autophagy, and translation dynamics, providing insights into protein synthesis and cell regulation in diverse biological systems.
