Properties
Description
SB 203580, soluble in DMSO and insoluble in ethanol and water, targets the ATP-binding site of the kinase, thereby preventing phosphorylation of downstream substrates. It targets p38 MAPK (THP-1 cells) and PKB (THP-1 cells).
Molecular Formula
C21H16FN3OS
Targets
p38 MAPK (THP-1 cells): 0.3-0.5 μM; PKB (THP-1 cells): 3-5 μM
Solubility
DMSO: 40 mg/mL (105.97 mM); Water: Insoluble; Ethanol: Insoluble
Identity
Confirmed by NMR/HPLC/MS.
Applications
SB 203580 can be used to study the inhibition of p38 MAP kinase and its effects on cellular stress response.
