SB2960 is a receptor for activated protein C kinase 1 (RACK1) binder with a human KD of 5.65 μM. SB2960 can promote stress granule (SG) formation and exhibit potent antiviral activity across diverse viral species. SB2960 suppresses viral replication with minimal cytotoxicity by modulating host antiviral immune responses. SB2960 increases the thermal stability of RACK1 and reduces SARS-CoV-2 N protein levels. SB2960 enhances type I interferon (IFN-β) expression and inhibits RIG-I, ISG56, and RANTES expression. SB2960 can be used for the research of virus infection.

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, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
