PD98059 (Standard)

PD98059 (Standard) is the analytical standard of PD98059. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. PD98059 is a potent and selective MEK inhibitor with an IC50 of 5 µM. PD98059 binds to the inactive form of MEK, thereby preventing the activation of MEK1 (IC50 of 2-7 µM) and MEK2 (IC50 of 50 µM) by upstream kinases. PD98059 is a ERK1/2 signaling inhibitor. PD98059 is a ligand for the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR), and suppresses TCDD binding (IC50 of 4 μM) and AHR transformation (IC50 of 1 μM) . PD98059 also inhibits Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus CalmetteGuerin (BCG) -induced autophagy[1][2][3].
