Blasticidin S B052-5MG

产品介绍

Blasticidin S is a peptidyl nucleoside produced by several species of Streptomyces that was first isolated from S. griseochromogenes in 1958.  Blasticidin S inhibits protein synthesis and is active against bacteria, fungi, nematodes, and tumor cells.  The compound is used as a selection antibiotic for both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells, and a marker for strain manipulation.  It can be used in genome editing using the CRISPR/Cas9 system.
