 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:- 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.
- Recommended Usage Concentration: RSL1 is active over a broad range of concentration(10 pM to 1 μM). We recommend 500 nM for maximum induction.
