Description
This product acts by binding to the 30S and 50S subunits, causing miscoding and inhibiting initiation and elongation during protein synthesis. Neomycin also blocks voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels without affecting the Na+/Ca2+ antiporter in neurons.
Applications:
- As a selection agent for prokaryotic cells transformed using the neo selectable marker gene
- To study ototoxic side effects of antibiotics and platelet-derived growth factor responses in certain fibroblasts
- In the extraction of Nuclear Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-Bisphosphate-Interacting Proteins
- It is recommended for use in cell culture applications at 50mg/L
