| Additional Infomation |
Didemnin B is a Didemnin-like compound that functions as a metabolite. It has been reported to exist in Trididemnum cyanophorum, Trididemnum solidum, and other organisms with relevant data. Didemnin B is a cyclic peptide extracted from the Caribbean sea squirt Trididemnum cyanophorum. Didemnin B activates caspase, thereby inducing apoptosis, and inhibits eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF-2)-dependent translocation, thereby suppressing protein synthesis. This compound also possesses immunosuppressive and antiviral properties. (NCI04)
Didemnin B is a marine natural product with significant research value. It is not approved for human therapeutic use but serves as a lead compound for the development of anticancer and antiviral agents. Its mechanism of action as an eEF1A inhibitor makes it a valuable tool for studying protein synthesis. |

*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.
