PD98059
MEK kinase inhibitor
Product Specifications
Background
PD98059 is a potent, selective and reversible inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK/ MEK-1) activation. Specifically, it binds to the inactive form of MAPKK, blocking its activation, causing inhibition of phosphorylation and the activation of MAP kinase. It has been shown to enhance self-renewal of embryonic stem cells. PD98059 is cell permeable inhibitor.
