11R-CaN-AID Ac-RRRRRRRRRRRGGGRMAPPRRDAMPSDA-NH2 White lyophilized solid. Supplied as a trifluoroacetate salt. PROTECT FROM LIGHT. HYGROSCOPIC. PACKAGED UNDER INERT GAS. A cell-permeable peptide that is composed of the calcineurin (CaN) autoinhibitory domain (AID) fused to a poly-arginine-based protein transduction domain (11R) and acts as an inhibitor of CaN phosphatase activity. Blocks CaN-dependent NFAT nuclear translocation and NFAT promoter activity in neurons. Protects neuronal cells from glutamate-induced cell death. Purity: ≥98% by HPLC.
