PQK7
PQK7 is an α-synuclein (α-synuclein) binder with a Kd value of 4 μM. PQK7 binds to key residues in the NAC region of ⍺-Syn, enhances the fluctuation of ⍺-Syn, reduces β-sheet content, maintains the solubility of ⍺-Syn monomers, and preserves the normal function of the protein. PQK7 reduces the toxicity of ⍺-Syn aggregates, restores cell cycle progression, decreases apoptosis (apoptosis), and inhibits ROS production. PQK7 can be used for the research of Parkinson's disease.

Biological Activity
제품 설명
In Vitro
PQK7 (2-20 μM; 24 h) reduces β-sheet formation of α-Syn monomers and induces the transition of this protein to a random coil conformation[1].
PQK7 (2.5 μM; 0-48 h) reduces the number and size of α-Syn aggregates[1].
PQK7 (2.5 μM; 12-32 h) maintains α-Syn in a soluble state during the fibrosis process[1].
PQK7 (2.5-70 μM; ~48 h) reduces the seeding activity of α-Syn fibrillation products; additionally, at concentrations of 2.5-30 μM for 30 h, it inhibits preformed fibril-induced secondary α-Syn fibrillation[1].
PQK7 (2 μM; 24 h) reduces the nucleation of α-Syn monomers on preformed α-Syn fibrils[1].
PQK7 (2 μM; 36 h fibril formation, 24 h cell treatment) restores normal cell cycle progression in SH-SY5Y cells treated with 36 h-aged α-Syn fibrils, reverses the decrease in the proportion of G1-phase cells, and reduces the proportion of cells entering the apoptotic sub-G1 phase after 24 h of treatment[1].
