Biological Activity

MASM7 is a small-molecule activator of mitofusins that promotes mitofusin-mediated mitochondrial fusion. By directly binding to the heptad repeat 2 (HR2) domain of mitofusin 2 (MFN2), it enhances mitochondrial aspect ratio and induces organelle fusion. Activators targeting mitofusins regulate mitochondrial network dynamics, restoring mitochondrial morphology and supporting cellular bioenergetics across various eukaryotic cell models. [1]

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).
