CAS 31282-04-9: Hygromycin B
Description:Hygromycin B is an aminoglycoside antibiotic produced by the bacterium *Micromonospora hygroscopicus*. It is primarily known for its ability to inhibit protein synthesis in bacteria and some eukaryotic cells, making it a valuable tool in molecular biology for selecting genetically modified organisms. Hygromycin B is effective against a broad spectrum of microorganisms, including certain Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, as well as fungi. Its mechanism of action involves binding to the ribosomal RNA, disrupting the translation process. The compound is typically used in laboratory settings for the selection of cells that have been transformed with hygromycin resistance genes. Hygromycin B is soluble in water and exhibits stability under various pH conditions, although it is sensitive to light and should be stored in a dark environment. Safety precautions are necessary when handling this compound, as it can be toxic to humans and other organisms at high concentrations. Overall, Hygromycin B is a crucial reagent in genetic engineering and cell biology research.
