Product Description
Hygromycin B, an aminoglycosidic antibiotic produced by Streptomyces hygroscopicus, is used for the selection and maintenance of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells transfected with the hygromycin resistance gene, hph. Hygromycin B kills bacteria, fungi and higher eukaryotic cells by inhibiting protein synthesis. The resistance gene codes for a kinase that inactivates Hygromycin B through phosphorylation. Cloning of the resistance gene and fusion with eukaryotic promoters has resulted in the development of vectors that permit selection for resistance to Hygromycin B in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.Use: The working concentration for the purpose of selection varies with cell type, media, growth conditions and cell metabolic rate. Recommended concentration for the selection of resistant cells is 25-1000 µg/ml. Commonly used concentrations for selection are 200 µg/ml for mammalian cells, 20-200 µg/ml for plant cells & bacteria cells and 200-1000 µg/ml for fungi. Your optimum concentration should be tested experimentally.
