Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

MJN228 is a selective ligand for the lipid-binding protein nucleobindin 1 (NUCB1), blocking binding of the probe arachidonoyl ethanolamide-diazirine with an IC50 value of 3.3 µM. It prevents probe binding to NUCB1 in Neuro2a cells at concentrations as low as 10 µM.

Product Data
Biological target:
MJN228 is a lipid-binding protein nucleobindin-1 (NUCB1) inhibitor with an IC50 of 3.3 μM.
In vitro activity:
Treatment of Neuro2a cells with MJN228 or KML110 (25 μM) produced substantial (∼3-5-fold) reductions in lipid probe enrichment of NUCB1, while KML181 had no effect (Figure 7A). MJN228 inhibited lipid probe binding to NUCB1 at concentrations as low as 10 μM, with near-maximal inhibition observed at ∼25 μM (Figure S7A).

Note: There can be variations in solubility for the same chemical from different vendors or different batches from the same vendor. The following factors can affect the solubility of the same chemical: solvent used for crystallization, residual solvent content, polymorphism, salt versus free form, degree of hydration, solvent temperature. Please use the solubility data as a reference only. Warming and sonication will facilitate dissolving. Still have questions? Please contact our Technical Support scientists.
