Herbimcyin is a sparingly soluble benzoquinone anti-tumor agent which interacts with the stress-induced chaperone protein Hsp90 (heat shock protein 90).
CAS Number: 70563-58-5
Molecular Formula: C30H42N2O9
Molecular Weight: 574.66
Mechanism of Action: Herbimycin A binds specifically to the heat shock protein Hsp90 and to its endoplasmic reticulum homologue GP96, and thus interferes with conformational maturation of proteins and the cellular stress response.
Storage Conditions: -20°C
