DRB
DRB is a nucleoside analog that acts as a potent inhibitor of multiple carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) kinases, notably casein kinase II, with IC50 values ranging from 4 to 10 μM. It is widely used in biochemical and cellular research to study transcription regulation, RNA polymerase II activity, and cell cycle progression in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
