Product Description
GA3-AM (Gibberellic Acid Acetoxymethyl Ester), a Gibberellin analogue (GA3), is a cell permeable chemical dimerizer that can induce rapid dimerization of GAIs and GID1.
GA3-AM (CAS#: 1373154-68-7, molecular weight 416.47, molecular formula C22H28O8) is a cell-permeable acetoxymethyl (AM) ester derivative of the plant hormone gibberellic acid (GA3). It functions as a chemical dimerizer or chemical inducer of dimerization. GA3-AM is used in research to control protein interactions and gene expression. It has been combined with the rapamycin dimerization system and CRISPR/Cas9 activators to enable temporal regulation of multiple genes. GA3-AM is a research-grade compound validated for use in multiple mammalian cell lines.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
GA3-AM targets the gibberellin signaling pathway by inducing the rapid dimerization of the gibberellin receptor GID1 and the growth repressor DELLA protein GAI. As a cell-permeable analog of gibberellic acid, it enters cells and is converted to its active form. This active form promotes the interaction between GID1 and GAI, which can be used to control protein-protein interactions and regulate downstream signaling events. This system has been adapted for use in mammalian cells to control CRISPR/Cas9 activator function.
ln Vitro
For the brewing business, gibberellic acid (GA3) is an effective regulator of plant growth that can hasten barley germination [1].
In vitro, GA3-AM is used as a chemical tool to induce rapid protein dimerization. For example, at a concentration of 10 μM, it rapidly induces the translocation of cytosolic GFP-GID1 to the plasma membrane. This activity demonstrates its utility as a chemical inducer of dimerization in living cells. Its cell permeability allows for use in a variety of mammalian cell lines, including HeLa, HEK293T, NIH3T3, COS-7, and MCF10A.
ln Vivo
In vivo applications of GA3-AM are inferred from its in vitro use as a chemical dimerizer. As a tool for controlling protein-protein interactions and gene expression, it can be used in animal models to study biological processes with temporal precision. However, specific in vivo animal experimental data for GA3-AM is not detailed in the search results.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro receptor binding or enzyme assays for GA3-AM are not standard, as it is a chemical dimerizer rather than a traditional enzyme inhibitor or receptor ligand. Its activity is assessed by measuring its ability to induce protein dimerization or translocation in cell-based assays.
Cell Assay
In vitro cell-based assays for GA3-AM involve treating cells expressing a GID1-GFP fusion protein and a GAI-containing system with the compound and monitoring the induced protein interaction. For example, the addition of 10 μM GA3-AM can be used to rapidly induce the translocation of GFP-GID1 from the cytosol to the plasma membrane. This assay provides a direct readout of the compound's dimerization activity in living cells.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal experiments for GA3-AM have not been detailed in the provided search results. As a research tool for chemical dimerization, its application in animal models would involve using it to control the timing of biological processes, such as gene activation, in a spatiotemporal manner.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
GA3-AM is a cell-permeable compound with a molecular weight of 416.47. It is supplied as a research-grade small molecule with ≥90–95% purity by HPLC. The compound is validated for use across multiple mammalian cell lines. It is typically stored under recommended conditions for research compounds.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Specific toxicity data for GA3-AM is not extensively reported. As a research tool for chemical dimerization, its toxicity is evaluated in the context of its use in cell-based assays. The compound is for research use only and is not intended for human or veterinary use. Standard safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound.
