Product Information
| Description: | Methylenedisalicylic acid is a potent inhibitor of MarR family transcription factor A (MgrA) and Ser/Thr kinase (Stp1) that enhances SarA/MgrA phosphorylation through inhibition of Staphylococcus aureus Stp1, with an IC50 value of 9.68 ± 0.52 μM when acting on Stp1.In addition, Methylenedisalicylic acid can also be used as a lead compound in the study of methods to reduce staphylococcal toxicity. |
| Stability and Solubility Advice: | Information concerning product stability, particularly in solution, has rarely been reported and in most cases we can only offer a general guide. We recommend that stock solutions, once prepared, are stored aliquoted in tightly sealed vials and used within 1 month. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles. Storage conditions for some special products should refer to their storage details. |
