Description:
Di-Ellipticine-RIBOTAC TFA (Compound 7) is a RNA RIBOTAC degrader, capable of specifically binding and degrading r(G4C2)exp. Di-Ellipticine-RIBOTAC TFA only cuts the expanded GGGGCC repeat RNA in the pathogenic factor of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis/ frontotemporal dementia (c9ALS/FTD) - the chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (9orf72) gene (r(G4C2)exp), and has no effect on normal short repetitive sequences. Di-Ellipticine-RIBOTAC TFA significantly improves the pathological phenotype of c9ALS/FTD in cells and mouse models. Di-Ellipticine-RIBOTAC TFA can be used for the study of c9ALS/FTD.
Handling:
Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance,
