Application

Guanosine 5′-[γ-thio]triphosphate tetralithium salt has been used:
  • as a component of lysis buffer
  • in oocyte and mammalian cell patch-clamp experiments to keep the G proteins in a constantly active state
  • to couple with G- protein α, to study its effect on kinase activity

Biochem/physiol Actions

GTP-γ-S is a non-hydrolyzable GTP analog, known for its role as a G-protein activator. It has recently been shown to protect proteins from proteolytic degradation, stimulate GLUT4 translocation in a tyrosine kinase-dependent manner, stimulate phospholipases and induce actin polymerization in vitro.

There is a certain cross-talk in the nervous system between N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDARs) and Mu-opioid receptors (MORs). While NMDARs participate in the desensitization of MORs, these in turn modulate NMDAR-mediated glutamate responses. The G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) activate NMDARs

Discover Bioactive Small Molecules for Cyclic Nucleotides

Cyclic nucleotides, including cyclic AMP (cAMP), cyclic GMP (cGMP) and cyclic ADP-ribose, have been extensively studied as second messengers of intracellular events initiated by activation of GPCRs. cAMP modifies cell function in all eukaryotic cells, principally through the activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), but also through cAMP-gated ion channels and guanine nucleotide exchange factors directly activated by cAMP.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
