| Targets |
mSIRK targets the G protein βγ subunits and ERK1/2 signaling pathways. It disrupts the interaction between the α and βγ subunits of G proteins, promoting dissociation of the α subunit. This dissociation activates downstream signaling pathways including ERK1/2, leading to cellular responses.
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
mSIRK demonstrates potent in vitro activity as an activator of ERK1/2 with an EC50 of 2.5-5 μM. It is a cell-permeable peptide that can enter cells and activate ERK signaling. The compound disrupts the interaction between G protein α and βγ subunits, promoting α subunit dissociation and downstream ERK activation.
|
| ln Vivo |
mSIRK exhibits in vivo activity as an activator of ERK1/2 signaling. As a cell-permeable peptide, it can be administered to animals to study the effects of ERK activation in vivo. The compound may be used to investigate the role of G protein βγ subunits and ERK signaling in various physiological and pathological processes. Comprehensive in vivo studies are needed to fully characterize its efficacy and safety.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
The in vitro enzyme/receptor binding (non-cell-based) assay for mSIRK involves assessing its ability to disrupt the interaction between G protein α and βγ subunits. Purified G protein subunits are incubated with the peptide, and the dissociation of α and βγ subunits is measured using techniques such as fluorescence polarization, surface plasmon resonance, or size exclusion chromatography. The peptide’s ability to promote α subunit dissociation without stimulating nucleotide exchange is assessed.
|
| Cell Assay |
The in vitro cell-based assay for mSIRK involves treating cells with the peptide and measuring ERK1/2 activation. Cells are treated with varying concentrations of mSIRK (EC50 2.5-5 μM), and ERK1/2 phosphorylation is assessed by Western blotting with phospho-specific antibodies. The peptide’s cell-permeable nature allows it to enter cells and activate ERK signaling. Downstream effects on cell proliferation, differentiation, or other ERK-dependent processes may also be measured.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments for mSIRK involve administering the peptide to animals to study ERK activation in vivo. The peptide is administered via appropriate routes (e.g., intravenous, intraperitoneal), and ERK1/2 phosphorylation is measured in tissues of interest. The compound may be used to investigate the role of G protein βγ subunits and ERK signaling in various physiological and pathological processes.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Detailed pharmacokinetic properties of mSIRK are not extensively reported. As a 15-amino acid peptide with a cell-permeable sequence, it is expected to have rapid cellular uptake but may be susceptible to proteolytic degradation in vivo. Further pharmacokinetic studies are needed to determine its half-life, bioavailability, and tissue distribution. The compound is typically used for research purposes only.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Toxicological data for mSIRK are not extensively documented. As a research peptide, its safety profile is evaluated in standard cytotoxicity assays. The compound is classified for research use only and is not intended for human therapeutic use. Comprehensive toxicological characterization would be required prior to any clinical development.

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80: Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 :Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

*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.
