Leu-AMS, a leucine analogue and potent inhibitor of leucyl-tRNA synthetase (LRS) with an IC50 of 22.34 nM, exhibits cytotoxic effects in both cancer and normal cells and hampers bacterial growth. It specifically inhibits LRS's catalytic activity without impacting the leucine-induced activation of mTORC1.
FAM-DEALAHypYIPMDDDFQLRSF is a 5,6-carboxyfluorescein (FAM) labeled HIF-1α peptide. It binds with high affinity to von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) protein (KD= 3 nM). Can be used to assess ligand binding to VHL in a direct fluorescence polarization (FP) displacement assay. Excitation/emission maxima (λ) = 485/520 nm. This product is a longer peptide version of FAM-DEALA-Hyp-YIPD.
