General description

A cell-permeable indazolo-sulfonamide compound that displays broad-spectrum inhibitory activity against RNA Polymerase III (IC50 = 27 and 32 µM for human and S. cerevisiae RNA Pol III, respectively). Inhibits cell growth in yeast by preventing RNA Pol III-mediated tRNA transcription. Also available as a 25 mM solution in DMSO (Cat. No. 557404).
A cell-permeable inhibitor of RNA polymerase III (RNA Pol III) (IC50 = 27 µM for human RNA Pol III and 32 µM for Saccharomyces cerevisiae RNA Pol III). Inhibits cell growth in yeast by preventing RNA Pol III-mediated tRNA transcription.

More than 98% of the human genome is comprised of non-protein coding sequences. Interestingly, a considerable fraction of these sequences is transcribed into non-protein coding RNA transcripts. These transcripts range in size from very small RNAs such as the miRNAs

One of the hopes for overcoming the antibiotic resistance crisis is the use of bacteriophages to combat bacterial infections, the so-called phage therapy. This therapeutic approach is generally believed to be safe for humans and animals as phages should infect

RNA polymerase III (Pol III) includes two alternate isoforms, defined by mutually exclusive incorporation of subunit POLR3G (RPC7α) or POLR3GL (RPC7β), in mammals. The contributions of POLR3G and POLR3GL to transcription potential has remained poorly defined. Here, we discover that
