Blasticidin S hydrochloride powder is a commonly used antibiotic in the life science marketplace. It is primarily employed as a selective agent in cell culture systems and molecular biology applications.
Blasticidin S is derived from Streptomyces griseochromogenes and is effective against a wide range of organisms, including bacteria, yeast, fungi, and certain higher eukaryotic cells. It works by inhibiting protein synthesis in cells, specifically targeting the 80S ribosome and interfering with the peptidyl transferase activity.
In the life science marketplace, Blasticidin S hydrochloride powder is frequently used in cell culture research and genetic engineering. It is added to growth media to select for cells that have successfully incorporated a Blasticidin S resistance gene, typically as part of a recombinant DNA construct or plasmid vector.
