Biological Activity

VR23 is a small-molecule proteasome inhibitor that targets the catalytic activities of the 20S proteasome complex, including trypsin-like, chymotrypsin-like, and caspase-like proteasomal active sites. By blocking the proteasomal degradation of short-lived and polyubiquitinated cellular proteins, proteasome inhibition disrupts essential protein homeostasis, induces endoplasmic reticulum stress, and promotes downstream apoptotic cell death in cancer cells.

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).
