Extra Details:: A cell-permeable bis-indolo (indirubin) compound that acts as a highly potent, selective, reversible, and ATP-competitive inhibitor of GSK-3a/b (IC50=5nM). Its specificity has been tested against various Cdk's (IC50=83, 300, 320, and 10,000nM for Cdk5/p25, Cdk2/A, Cdk1/B, and Cdk4/D1, respectively) as well as many other commonly studied kinases (IC50≥10uM), including MAP kinases, PKA, PKC isoforms, PKG, CK, and IRTK. Inhibition of GSK by BIO has been shown to result in the activation of Wnt-signaling pathway and sustained pluripotency in human and murine ESCs (embryonic stem cells). Reported to maintain self-renewal in human and mouse embryonic stem cells. Also induces the differentiation of neonatal cardiomyocytes. CAS Number: 667463-62-9 Formula: C16H10BrN3O2 Primary Target: GSK-3a/b Primary Target IC50: 5nM Secondary Target: IC50 = 83, 300, 320, and 10,000nM for Cdk5/p25, Cdk2/A, Cdk1/B, and Cdk4/D1, respectively. Solubility: DMSO Molecular Weight: 356.2 Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at 4°C. Do not freeze. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
