Binds Hsp90 and GRP94, inhibits growth of cancer cells
Geldanamycin, a crystalline antimicrobial compound derived from the culture filtrates of Streptomyces hygroscopicus var. geldanus var. nova., is a potent and specific inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) that specifically binds to the unique ATP binding pocket of Hsp90 in a stable and pharmacologically specific manner. As an antimicrobial agent, geldanamycin exhibits moderate activity against protozoa, bacteria and fungi as well as parasite Syphacia oblevata and cell cultures of L-1210 and KB. Recent studies have shown that geldanamycin also inhibits the function of glucocorticoid receptor and endothelium-dependent relaxation of the rat aorta, mesentery and middle artery.

Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) of nucelotide binding |
The titration experiments were performed using the MSC system. In each experiment, 16 aliquots of 15 μL of Geldanamycin (300 μM in 1% DMSO) were injected into 1.3 mL of protein (31 μM in 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 1 mM EDTA) at 25°C, and the resulting data were fit after subtracting the heats of dilution. Heats of dilution were determined in separate experiments from addition of Geldanamycin into buffer and buffer into protein. No evidence for binding of DMSO in the nucleotide binding site was observed. Titration data were fit using a nonlinear least-squares curve-fitting algorithm with three floating variables: stoichiometry, binding constant (Kb = 1/Kd), and change of enthalpy of interaction (ΔH°). The dissociation constant estimated for Geldanamycin binding to intact yeast Hsp90 was 1.22 μM, and for binding to Hsp90 N-terminal domain was 0.78 μM. No meaningful heat was observed with binding to the C-terminal fragment. |

Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
