6-O-Methyl Guanosine
Based on 1 Customer Validation
6-O-Methyl Guanosine is a Ribonucleoside. Replacement of the conserved G5, G8 or G12 residues in hammerhead ribozymes with 6-O-Methyl Guanosine reduces kcat without altering Km. 6-O-Methyl Guanosine exerts position-dependent regulatory effects on ribosomal velocity and fidelity. When 6-O-Methyl Guanosine is located at the first or third position of a codon, it decreases the accuracy of tRNA selection. When 6-O-Methyl Guanosine is located at the second position of a codon, it slows down the peptide bond formation rate of cognate aminoacyl-tRNA but does not change the reaction rate of near-cognate aminoacyl-tRNA.

Biological Activity
Substitution of conserved G5, G8, or G12 residues in hammerhead ribozymes with 6-O-Methyl Guanosine (10-40 nM) reduces kcat by approximately 75-fold without altering Km[1].
When 6-O-Methyl Guanosine is located at the first or third position of a codon, it reduces the accuracy of tRNA selection. When it is located at the second position of a codon, it slows down the peptide bond formation rate of cognate aminoacyl-tRNA, but does not alter the reaction rate of near-cognate aminoacyl-tRNA[2].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 6.5 mg/mL (21.87 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 6.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (65.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: ≥ 6.5 mg/mL (21.87 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 6.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (65.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
