Pyrimethamine

InhA, Func 58-14-0
Catalog No. ABIN4871458

Quick Overview for Pyrimethamine (ABIN4871458)

Application

Inhibition Assay (InhA), Functional Studies (Func)
  • Purpose

    Pyrimethamine is a dihydrofolate reductase(DHFR) inhibitor with an IC50 of 15.4 nM. It is a medication used for protozoal infections. It is commonly used as an antimalarial drug (for both treatment and prevention of malaria), and is also used (combined with sulfadiazine) in the treatment of Toxoplasma gondii infections in immune-compromised patients, such as HIV-positive individuals. It interferes with folic acid synthesis by inhibiting the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR). Folic acid is needed for DNA and RNA synthesis in many species, including protozoa.

    Storage Comment

    For the majority of compounds, they could be dissolved in DMSO or other organic solvent.
    Their stock solution can be stored at -20°C for up to 3 months and aliquoted for sampling convenience.
    Several freeze/thaw cycles should not damage the activity of our small molecule products.
    However, in many instances the aqueous solutions of some compounds need to be made fresh and cannot be stored. For these compounds, their solution should be prepared just before use and stored no longer than 24 hours.
