Product Description

BQU57, a derivative of RBC8, is a novel and selective GTPase Ral inhibitor relative to the GTPases Ras and RhoA. RBC8 is a derivative of BQU57. It inhibits tumor xenograft growth and demonstrates selectivity for Ral in comparison to Ras and RhoA GTPases. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) was used to measure the dissociation constant (Kd) of 7.760.6 mM for the binding of BQU57 to RalB–GDP. With a Kd value of 4.761.5 mM, it was comparable to the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) results. The colony formation of the Ral-dependent lines H2122 and H358 in soft agar can be effectively inhibited by RBC8 or BQU57, but not by H460 or Calu-6.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
GTPase Ral
ln Vitro

BQU57 inhibits RalA and RalB activation in the H2122 and H358 cell lines, which inhibits cell growth. [1]

ln Vivo
BQU57 (50 mg/kg, i.p.) significantly inhibits both RalA and RalB activation and causes dose-dependent tumor growth inhibition in mice harboring human lung H2122 tumors. [1]
Enzyme Assay
This assay used J82 human bladder cancer cells that stably expressed Flag-tagged RalA. The Flag epitope tag greatly increased the sensitivity and dynamic range of the assay compared with using Ral-specific antibodies for detection. Cells were treated with each of the 88 compounds (tested at 50 mM), and then extracts were prepared. The binding of Flag–RalA to recombinant RALBP1 that had been immobilized in 96-well plates was quantified. In this assay, RalA binding reflects Ral’s GTP loading and capacity for effector activation.
Cell Assay
The compounds are tested for their ability to inhibit human lung cancer cell growth in soft agar medium without requiring anchorage. Seeding of cells into 6-well plates with a base layer of 2.0 mL of 1% low-melting-point agarose and 3.0 mL of 0.4% low-melting-point agarose containing different drug concentrations results in 15,000 cells per well. Under a microscope, colonies are counted two to four weeks (depending on the cell line) after the cells are incubated and stained with 1.0 mg/mL Nitro Blue Tetrazolium. The drug concentration at which the number of colonies was reduced by 50% when compared to the DMSO-treated control is known as the IC50 value. After 48 hours, the soft agar colony formation assay is performed on the cells.

Solubility Data
Solubility (In Vitro)
DMSO: ~66 mg/mL (~197.5 mM)
Water: <1 mg/mL
Ethanol: ~20 mg/mL (~59.9 mM)
Solubility (In Vivo)
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (7.48 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 (7.48 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.)

*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:

  • 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
