We recommend that you prepare and use the solution on the same day. However, if the test schedule requires, the stock solutions can be prepared in advance, and the stock solution must be sealed and stored below -20℃. In general, the stock solution can be kept for several months.
Before use, we recommend that you leave the vial at room temperature for at least an hour before opening it.
About Packaging 1. The packaging of the product may be reversed during transportation, cause the high purity compounds to adhere to the neck or cap of the vial.Take the vail out of its packaging and shake gently until the compounds fall to the bottom of the vial.
2. For liquid products, please centrifuge at 500xg to gather the liquid to the bottom of the vial.
3. Try to avoid loss or contamination during the experiment.
Shipping Condition Packaging according to customer requirements(5mg, 10mg, 20mg and more). Ship via FedEx, DHL, UPS, EMS or other couriers with RT, or blue ice upon request.

Biological Activity of Blasticidin A

Description1. Blasticidin A, an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces, almost completely inhibit aflatoxin production at 0.5 microM, significantly reduces the expression of genes encoding aflatoxin biosynthetic enzymes (pksA, ver-1 and omtA) and a regulatory gene (aflR) in A. parasiticus.

References on Blasticidin A

Blasticidin A as an inhibitor of aflatoxin production by Aspergillus parasiticus.[Pubmed:11213287]

J Antibiot (Tokyo). 2000 Nov;53(11):1265-71.

Blasticidin A, an antibiotic, showed strong inhibitory activity toward aflatoxin production by Aspergillus parasiticus. Its structure was characterized by NMR and chemical degradation experiments as 1, which is a tetramic acid derivative with a highly oxygenated long alkyl chain similar to aflastatin A (2). Absolute configurations of the eight chiral centers at C-4, 6, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35 and 37 of 1 were chemically determined. Blasticidin A almost completely inhibited aflatoxin production at 0.5 microM.

Absolute configuration of a polyol fragment of blasticidin A, a specific inhibitor of aflatoxin production.[Pubmed:14981305]

Biosci Biotechnol Biochem. 2004 Feb;68(2):407-12.

Blasticidin A (1) and aflastatin A (2), Streptomyces metabolites with similar structures, are specific inhibitors of aflatoxin production by Aspergillus parasiticus. The stereochemistry of the polyol fragment of 1 (3a) containing ten chiral centers was elucidated by applying acetonide and MTPA methods to a variety of acetonide derivatives of 3a, which determined the absolute configuration of 3a. By using the similar methods, the absolute configuration of the polyol fragment of 2 (4a) was determined, which was the same as that elucidated by J-based and other chemical methods previously.

Blasticidin A derivatives with highly specific inhibitory activity toward aflatoxin production in Aspergillus parasiticus.[Pubmed:11217803]

J Antibiot (Tokyo). 2000 Dec;53(12):1378-84.

Blasticidin A (1), an antibiotic, has strong inhibitory activity toward aflatoxin production by Aspergillus parasiticus. We prepared some derivatives of 1 and examined their biological activities. Among them, derivatives 3 and 4 without the tetramic acid moiety of 1 maintained inhibitory activity toward aflatoxin production, but did not show antifungal activity or toxicity. RT-PCR experiments indicated that derivatives 3 and 4 as well as 1 significantly reduced the expression of genes encoding aflatoxin biosynthetic enzymes (pksA, ver-1 and omtA) and a regulatory gene (aflR) in A. parasiticus. These results suggested that derivatives 3 and 4 can inhibit aflatoxin production more specifically than 1 by inhibiting an early step prior to the expression of aflR in the pathway of aflatoxin biosynthesis.

Inhibitory activity of blasticidin A, a strong aflatoxin production inhibitor, on protein synthesis of yeast: selective inhibition of aflatoxin production by protein synthesis inhibitors.[Pubmed:20414321]

J Antibiot (Tokyo). 2010 Jun;63(6):309-14.

Blasticidin A (BcA), an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces, inhibits aflatoxin production without strong growth inhibition toward aflatoxin-producing fungi. During the course of our study on the mode of action of BcA by two-dimensional differential gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE), we found a decrease in the abundances of ribosomal proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae after exposure to BcA. This phenomenon was also observed by treatment with blasticidin S (BcS) or cycloheximide. BcA inhibited protein synthesis in a galactose-induced expression system in S. cerevisiae similar to BcS and cycloheximide. BcS, but not cycloheximide, inhibited aflatoxin production in Aspergillus parasiticus without inhibition of fungal growth, similar to BcA. A decrease in the abundances of aflatoxin biosynthetic enzymes was observed in 2D-DIGE experiments with Aspergillus flavus after exposure to BcA or BcS. These results suggested that protein synthesis inhibitors are useful to control aflatoxin production.
