Product Description

Bikinin (also known as Abrasin), a pyridinylamido compound, is a novel, potent, non-steroidal and ATP-competitive inhibitor of Arabidopsis GSK-3 (Glycogen synthase kinase 3). Additionally, it stimulates brassinosteroid (BR) signaling. Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) is a crucial signaling pathway regulator in both plants and animals. It has been demonstrated that three Arabidopsis thaliana GSK3s are involved in brassinosteroid (BR) signaling.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
GSK-3
ln Vitro
Bikinin activates brassinosteroid-dependent gene expression by directly targeting BIN2 of Arabidopsis GSK-3s. [1] A 150 mM NaCl induction of GUS activity in the RD26pro:GUS line is also inhibited by bikinin, along with the expression of RD26. [3]
ln Vivo
In vivo, bikinin inhibits T180 phosphorylation of SnRK2.3 and its kinase activity as well as the outputs of the abscisic acid signaling pathway. [2]
Enzyme Assay
In Escherichia coli BL21, ASKs are expressed as GST-fusion proteins. In vitro kinase assays are carried out by incubating 50 ng of GST-fusion protein, 10 μg of myelin basic protein (MBP), and 0.15 MBq of γ-[32P]-ATP for 30 min at 25 °C. The reaction buffer is composed of 1 mM dithiothreitol, 20 mM HEPES/KOH pH 7.4, 15 mM MgCl2, 5 mM EGTA, and 1 μM cold ATP. Using an Amersham storage phosphor imager screen and a Biorad Molecular Imager FX, the reaction products are separated by SDS-PAGE, and the radioactivity incorporated into MBP is quantified.
Cell Assay
To measure viable cells, 50-100 μL of cell suspension is analyzed using CASY technology with the appropriate program. ReNcell VM cells are seeded at a defined cell number and proliferated for 24 h. Then the medium is changed to proliferation medium with added substances at indicated concentrations. The cell number was determined every 24 h. Cells were exposed to the added drugs during the whole experiment, whereas the media is changed every 24 h.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: ~54 mg/mL (~197.7 mM)
Water: <1 mg/mL
Ethanol: <1 mg/mL
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.15 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.15 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg

5 mM 0.7324 mL 3.6619 mL 7.3239 mL
10 mM 0.3662 mL 1.8310 mL 3.6619 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
