Clear solution
5%DMSO 40%PEG300 5%Tween80 50%ddH2O
5.0mg/ml Taking the 1 mL working solution as an example, add 50 μL of 100 mg/ml clarified DMSO stock solution to 400 μL of PEG300, mix evenly to clarify it; add 50 μL of Tween80 to the above system, mix evenly to make it clear; then continue to add 500 μL of ddH2O to adjust the volume to 1 mL. The mixed solution should be used immediately for optimal results. 
* <1 mg/ml means slightly soluble or insoluble.
* Please note that Selleck tests the solubility of all compounds in-house, and the actual solubility may differ slightly from published values. This is normal and is due to slight batch-to-batch variations.
* Room temperature shipping (Stability testing shows this product can be shipped without any cooling measures.)

Biological Activity

Description Epoxomicin (BU-4061T, Aids010837) is a selective proteasome inhibitor with anti-inflammatory activity, inhibits primarily the CH-L activity of the 20S proteasome, while T-L and PGPH catalytic activities are also inhibited at 100- and 1000-fold reduced rate. Epoxomicin promotes apoptosis.
Targets
20S proteasome [1]
In vitro

Epoxomicin covalently binds to the LMP7, X, MECL1, and Z catalytic subunits of the proteasome. Epoxomicin (100 nM) results in a 30-fold increase in the levels of p53 protein, a known target of the proteasome, in HUVECs. Epoxomicin (10 μM) results in the accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins in HeLa cells. Epoxomicin (10 μM) inhibits IκBα degradation by 10-fold in HeLa cells. Epoxomicin (10 μM) produces a significant dose-dependent reduction in TNF-α-stimulated NF-κB DNA-binding activity in HeLa cells. [1]

Epoxomicin inhibits proliferating of EL4 lymphoma cells with biotinylated chimerae with IC50 of 4 nM. [2]

Epoxomicin (1 μM) leads to a reduction of LCMV GP33 presentation and an enhancement of GP276 presentation. [3]

Epoxomicin inhibits growth of Babesia bigemina with IC50 of 4 nM. Epoxomicin (0.5 mg/kg and 0.05 mg/kg) results in peak parasitemia levels of 34.8% and 42.3% in B. microti. [4]

Epoxomicin (100 nM) decreases the total parasitemia by 78%, 86% and 77% in Plasmodium falciparum. Epoxomicin (10 μM) inhibits gametogenesis and exflagellation as well as development into oocysts of anopheles mosquitoes. [5]
In vivo

Epoxomicin (0.58 mg/kg per day) reduces the CS response by 44% relative to the control group of mice treated with vehicle alone. Epoxomicin (2.9 mg/kg) potently inhibits the irritant-associated inflammatory response by 95% when ear edema measurements are made 24 hours postchallenge in mice. [1]
Features Epoxomicin is a natural product isolated from an Actinomycetes species.

Protocol (from reference)

Kinase Assay:

[1]
  • Enzyme Kinetic Assays

    For proteasome inhibition assays, peptide-AMC substrates (5 μM Suc-LLVY-AMC, 5 μM Z-LLE-AMC, and 5 μM Boc-LRR-AMC) and Epoxomicin in DMSO are added to assay solutions at a final DMSO concentration of 1%. The following assay buffer is used: 20 mM Tris⋅HCl, pH 8.0/0.5 mM EDTA (plus 0.035% SDS for Suc-LLVY-AMC and Z-LLE-AMC assays). Bovine red blood cell proteasome is added to the assay buffer containing substrates and Epoxomicin at a final volume of 100 μL at room temperature (23℃) in a Dynex Microfluor II 96-well plate and the fluorescence emission immediately is measured at 460 nm (λex, 360 nM) by using a Cytofluor fluorescence plate reader for 50 min.
