Desription: Guanidine hydrochloride, the crystalline compound of strong alkalinity formed by the oxidation of guanine, is a normal product of protein metabolism and a protein denaturant. Target: Others Guanidine hydrochloride is the most popular protein denaturant. Analysis of unfolding transitions by Guanidine hydrochloride provides several important parameters regarding the mechanism of conformational stability of proteins. Guanidine hydrochloride at low concentrations refolds acid-unfolds apomyoglobin and cytochrome c, stabilizing the molten globule state. Guanidine hydrochloride (> 1 M) causes co-operative unfolding of the molten globule state [1]. Guanidine hydrochloride at millimolar concentrations, is able to causes efficient loss of the normally stable [PSI+] element from yeast cells. 5 mM Guanidine hydrochloride in growth media cures [PSI+] and other prions of yeast. 5 mM Guanidine hydrochloride significantly reduces Hsp104-mediated basal and acquired thermotolerance by 30-fold and 50 fold, respectively. Guanidine hydrochloride also reduces the ability of Hsp104 to restore activity of thermally denatured luciferase [2].
ln Vitro |
Low doses of guanidine hydrochloride stabilize the molten globule state, which is a compact denatured state with a significant quantity of secondary structure but a highly disordered tertiary structure, by refolding acid-unfolded apomyoglobin and cytochrome c. Melting globule state cooperatively unfolds when exposed to guanidine hydrochloride (> 1 M)[1]. Guanidine hydrochloride has little effect on the disulfide bonds, which maintain a significant degree of ordered structure[2]. At millimolar quantities, guanidine hydrochloride can effectively cause yeast cells to lose the typically stable [PSI+] element. In growth media, 5 mM guanidine hydrochloride cures [PSI+] and other yeast prions. Hsp104-mediated baseline and acquired thermotolerance are markedly reduced by 5 mM guanidine hydrochloride, by 30 and 50 fold, respectively. The capacity of Hsp104 to reinstate the activity of thermally denatured luciferase is likewise diminished by guanidine hydrochloride[3].

Additional Infomation |
Guanidine Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of guanidine, a strong basic compound with parasympathomimetic activity. Guanidine hydrochloride enhances the release of acetylcholine following a nerve impulse and potentiates acetylcholine actions on muscarinic and nicotinic receptors. It also appears to slow the rates of depolarization and repolarization of muscle cell membranes. (NCI05)
A strong organic base existing primarily as guanidium ions at physiological pH. It is found in the urine as a normal product of protein metabolism. It is also used in laboratory research as a protein denaturant. (From Martindale, the Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed and Merck Index, 12th ed) It is also used in the treatment of myasthenia and as a fluorescent probe in HPLC. |

Solubility (In Vivo) |
Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (21.77 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 20.8 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: ≥ 2.08 mg/mL (21.77 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in 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 20.8 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of 20% SBE-β-CD physiological saline solution and mix evenly. Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. View More

*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.
