Description:
Description: RheoSwitch® Ligand RSL1 is the transcriptional inducer of the RheoSwitch® Inducible Expression Kit (1). It is specific for the engineered nuclear receptor/activator pair of the RheoSwitch system and can be used to control levels of expression by adjusting its concentration in the culture medium.

RSL1 is the synthetic diacylhydrazine [(N-(2-ethyl-3-methoxybenzoyl)-N´-(3,5-dimethylbenzoyl)-N´-tert-butylhydrazine] (Figure 1). It is one of a family of compounds that have been found to act as non-steroidal ecdysone agonists and can function as gene inducers (2,3).

Properties & Usage


Molecular Weight:
Theoretical: 382.5 daltons


Reaction & Storage Conditions


Concentration:
5 mM

Storage Conditions:
100% DMSO


Storage Temperature:
-20°C


Notes


Usage notes:
  1. RSL1 can be added directly to culture medium to achieve desired final concentration. For example, 10 µl of RSL1 (5 mM) added to 100 ml of media results in a final concentration of 500 nM.
  2. Recommended Usage Concentration: RSL1 is active over a broad range of concentration(10 pM to 1 μM). We recommend 500 nM for maximum induction.
