fk-506

(E/Z)-FK-506 26,28-Allylic ester rearrangement impurity (FK506-A) is an impurity found in Tacrolimus.

Tacrolimus monohydrate (LCP-Tacro) is a macrolide from the culture broth of a strain of Streptomyces tsukubaensis, binds to FK506 binding protein (FKBP) to form a complex. Tacrolimus inhibits calcineurin phosphatase, which inhibits T-lymphocyte signal transduction and IL-2 transcription. Immunosuppressive properties. It prevents the activation of T-lymphocytes in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimulation in vitro and has strong immunosuppressive activity in vivo.

Tacrolimus (FK506, Fujimycin) is a macrolide immunosuppressant that binds to FKBP12 to form a high-affinity complex (Ki = 0.2 nM), which inhibits calcineurin phosphatase activity, thereby suppressing T lymphocyte signal transduction and the transcription and release of IL-2. It exerts potent immunosuppressive effects and can be used to induce immunosuppression models.

Shield-1 is a specific, high-affinity, and cell-permeable ligand for FK506-binding protein 12 (FKBP) and reverses instability by binding to mutant FKBP (mtFKBP), allowing conditional expression of mtFKBP fusion proteins.

Rapamycin (AY 22989) is a natural product of macrolides, an mTOR inhibitor with specificity (HEK293 cells: IC50=0.1 nM). Rapamycin has immunosuppressive activity and induces autophagy.

Etonogestrel (Implanon) is a steroidal progestin used as hormonal contraceptives.

GPI-1046 is an immunophilin ligand without antibiotic action and attenuates ethanol intake in part through the upregulation of glutamate transporter 1 (GLT1) in PFC and NAc-core.

Rimiducid is a lipid-permeable tacrolimus analogue, homodimerizing an analogue of human protein fkbp12 and binding to wild-type fkbp12 with 1000-fold lower affinity. Rimiducid is a dimerizer agent that acts by cross-linking the FKBP domains. It dimerizes the Caspase 9 suicide switch and rapidly induces apoptosis.

AP20187 (B/B Homodimerizer) is a cell-permeable compound used to dimerize FK506-binding protein (FKBP) fusion proteins, thereby initiating biological signaling cascades, gene expression, or disrupting protein-protein interactions.

Everolimus (SDZ-RAD) is a potent mTOR inhibitor that binds to FKBP-12. It is used alone or in combination with calcineurin inhibitors.

Ascomycin (Immunomycin)(Immunomycin, FR-900520, FK520) is an ethyl analog of tacrolimus (FK506) with strong immunosuppressant properties.

Tacrolimus-BSA is a hapten-carrier protein conjugate formed by coupling Tacrolimus to bovine serum albumin (BSA). As a hapten, Tacrolimus alone cannot induce an immune response and must be conjugated to a large molecular protein to become a complete antigen with immunogenicity. Tacrolimus-BSA may be supplied as a lyophilized powder or as a solution. The solution is prepared in 0.01 M TBS (pH 7.4) buffer at a typical concentration of 1 mg/mL.

L 683519 is one of the Tacrolimus impurities with immunosuppressant and could restrain the activity of FK-506 binding protein.

L 685818 is the C18-hydroxy, C21-ethyl of FK-506 analog.

Suc-Ala-Leu-Pro-Phe-pNA (Suc-ALPF-pNA), a substrate for FK-506 binding protein (FKBP) [1], is utilized to demonstrate the complex interactions essential for targeted biochemical assays.
