Puromycin dihydrochloride is an aminonucleoside antibiotic commonly used in molecular biology as a selection agent to isolate and maintain cells expressing a puromycin resistance gene (pac). It mimics aminoacyl-tRNA and causes premature chain termination during translation, leading to inhibition of protein synthesis and ultimately cell death in sensitive cells.

 

Features

  • Powerful Antibiotic Selection Agent:
    Efficiently kills eukaryotic cells that do not express the puromycin resistance gene (pac), allowing for strong and rapid selection of genetically modified cells.

  • Rapid Action:
    Causes cell death within 1–3 days by inhibiting protein synthesis, enabling quick selection timelines.
