Tunicamycin 14:1 Mixture

Tunicamycin 14:1 is a mixture of tunicamycin structural isomers that contain a 14-carbon N-acyl chain with variable branching patterns. The N-acyl chain incorporated into tunicamycins, like tunicamycin 14:1, is derived from the same pool of cellular branched-chain fatty acids (BCFAs) in Streptomyces and directly impacts the biological activity of each individual tunicamycin variant. Purified tunicamycin 14:1 with the iso branching configuration inhibits bacterial phospho-MurNAc-pentapeptide transferase (MraY) with an IC50 value of 0.31 µM.Synonyms: Tunicamycin II, Tunicamycin A1, Tunicamycin C. Molecular Formula: C37H60N4O16. Formula Weight: 816.9. Purity: >95% (mixture of isomers). Formulation: (Request formulation change), A crystalline solid. Solubility: DMF: 20 mg/ml, DMSO: 20 mg/ml, DMSO:PBS (pH 7.2) (1:3): 0.25 mg/ml. lambdamax: 260 nm.
