Tertiapin LQ

Cat. No. KC-030

Structure:

H-Ala-Leu-Cys*-Asn-Cys*-Asn-Arg-Ile-Ile-Ile-Pro-Leu-Gln-Cys*-Trp-Lys-Lys-Cys*-Gly-Lys-Lys-NH2; disulfide bridges between cysteines 3 - 14 and 5 - 18

Other Names:

TPNLQ, TLQ

Activity:

Selective Kir1.1 blocker 
Price Qty
1 mg    £ 85.00

Tertiapin LQ is a selective blocker of Kir1.1 channels, obtained by modifying tertiapin, the toxin from the honey bee venom.  Tertiapin LQ blocks Kir1 with high affinity (1.1 nM) and high selectivity (>250-fold) over many commonly studied Kir subtypes.  Application of tertiapin LQ locally in the superficial layers of the cerebellar cortex in decerebrate ferrets suppresses normal performance of Purkinje cell pause responses to the conditional stimulus with no detectable effect on spontaneous firing.
