Overview

Product name

Pitstop 2™

Description

Novel, selective cell permeable clathrin inhibitor

Biological description

Novel, selective, cell membrane permeable clathrin inhibitor. Competitively inhibits clathrin terminal domain to selectively inhibit clathrin mediated endocytosis (CME) (IC50 = 12 μM for inhibition of amphiphysin association of clathrin TD). Interferes with receptor mediated endocytosis (RME), entry of HIV and synaptic vesicle recycling.

General notes

A stock solution should be prepared by dissolving in 100% DMSO (fresh, sterile) to give a final concentration of 30 mM. Vortexing should be used to ensure solublization of the compound. This stock solution is stable at room temperature for about 4-6 hrs. Preparing initial stock solutions that are too low in concentration limits later use of the compound in aqueous buffers, as the DMSO concentration in the final aqueous solution should not exceed about 0.1%. Aliquots of the stock solution should be stored at -20 °C. Stock solutions should not be left at room temperature for longer than necessary to prepare the working solutions. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles of the stock solution as this may affect the activity of the compound. The compound will remain soluble in 1% DMSO. However, at concentrations of 300 μM or higher, precipitation may occur (depending on which aqueous buffer is used and the temperature).
