Ordering Information

Biological Activity

Genz-123346 is a potent inhibitor of glucosylceramide synthase (GL1 synthase) that blocks the conversion of ceramide to glucosylceramide. By inhibiting GL1 synthase, Genz-123346 disrupts the primary rate-limiting step in glycosphingolipid biosynthesis, leading to depleted cellular glucosylceramide levels and diminished downstream ganglioside production. Consequently, this compound modulates glycosphingolipid metabolism, improves insulin sensitivity, and suppresses renal cyst growth in polycystic kidney disease models. [1][2]

FAQ
Q: Why does a DMSO stock precipitate in media/saline?
A: It is caused by unheated aqueous media (supersaturation), local solvent shock, or incorrect mixing sequence.
How to fix it?
  • Preheat media/saline to 37°C.
  • Mix rapidly (pipette/vortex) upon addition.
  • For complex mixes, always add the aqueous phase last.
  • Re-dissolve minor precipitates with a 37°C water bath and sonication (≤30 min).
