Stem-Molecule — Y27632


Y27632 is a potent ROCK1 and ROCK2 inhibitor, namely Rho-associated coiled-coil forming protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitor. Y27632 has been used to propagate human pluripotent stem cells and reduces anoikis, namely apoptosis induced after single-cell passaging because of detachment of the cell with the ECM/extracellular membrane. Y27632 can also be used for expansion of human naïve pluripotent cells containing the genetic pluripotency reporter OCT4-ΔPE-GFP+ in t2iLGöY & m5i/LAF media.

Product Information
Applications: 
 
  • Improved single-cell passaging of human pluripotent stem cells by 25% 
  • Generation of reprogrammed human induced pluripotent stem cells
  • Derivation of nascent ES cell lines from epiblast/ICM from human embryos
  • Component of naïve human pluripotent stem cell media including t2iLGöY & m5i/LAF media

Source: 
This product is manufactured in the USA using chemically-defined components and, therefore, does not contain manufacturing components such as serum or animal-derived raw materials. 

Target:
Y27632 showed highly selective inhibition of ROCK activity with half the maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of Y27632 for ROCK1 is 220 nM and for ROCK2 is 300 nM. 

Purity: 
>99 %. FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) analysis was used to compare peaks in infrared spectrum with those of a known standard to determine trace impurities. 

Technical Information:

Storage/Stability: 

Stock solutions of Y27632 in its concentrated form can be stored at least 6 months at -20°C and at least 12 months at -80°C from the date of manufacture with no loss of activity. For long term storage, avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles by aliquoting.  Multiple freeze-thaw cycles reduce potency and, therefore, aliquoting working stocks is strongly recommended.  Y27632 is unstable in aqueous buffers and should not be stored longer than 24 hours, use immediately.†

Appearance: 

A sterile, aqueous, clear and colorless solution. 

Formulation: 

Y27632 is supplied at 25 mg/ml in the excipient DMSO. The reconstituted solution has been filter sterilized by passing through a 0.22 micron PES membrane and tested to be negative for mycoplasma contamination.

Optimized cloning efficiency is 50–100 ng of vector with 2-fold excess of inserts.
Use 5 times more insert if size is less than 200 bp. Total volume of unpurified PCR fragments in the assembly reaction should not exceed 20%.

**To achieve optimal assembly efficiency, design ≥ 20 bp overlap regions between each fragment with equimolarity (suggested: 0.05 pmol each).

Control reagents are provided for 5 experiments.

†† If greater numbers of fragments are assembled, increase the volume of the reaction linearly by using additional NovoHelix HiFi DNA Assembly Master Mix. Alternatively, pool the DNA fragments into an equimolar mix first and then re-purify these pooled equimolar fragments over a micro-column and elute with a minimum volume (~10-µl). The eluate may be reapplied to the same micro-column  membrane to improve elution of large DNA fragments without increasing the final volume..

Recommended Storage Condition:   
This assembly mixture can be stored at -20 °C for at least one year.  The enzymes remain active following at least 10 freeze-thaw cycles.
