Chemical Structure
EGTA
- CAS No.: 67-42-5
- Formula:C14H24N2O10
- Molecular Weight:380.35
IUPAC Name: 3,12-bis(carboxymethyl)-6,9-dioxa-3,12-diazatetradecanedioic acid
InChIKey: DEFVIWRASFVYLL-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: O=C(O)CN(CC(O)=O)CCOCCOCCN(CC(O)=O)CC(O)=O
Biological Activity: EGTA is a cell-impermeant specific calcium ion chelator. EGTA has an apparent calcium dissociation constant (Kd) of 60.5 nM at physiological pH (7.4) and has very high specificity for Ca2+ over Mg2+ (Mg2+ Kd 1-10 mM). EGTA significantly inhibits the substrate adherence capacity of inflammatory macrophages[1][2].
