Note
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.

Product Description
PS48 is a PDK1 (phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1) activator which binds to the HM/PIF binding pocket rather than the ATP-binding site. PS48 is one of only a few truly allosteric compounds targeting a regulatory binding site on a protein kinase catalytic domain that is not adjacent to or overlapping with the ATP-binding site.
This compound belongs to the class of organic compounds known as linear 1,3-diarylpropanoids. These are organic compounds with a structure based on a C6-C3-C6 skeleton, where the two benzene rings are not linked together.
