Puromycin 2HCl (CL13900), an analog of aminoacyl-tRNA (anaminonucleoside), is a potent antibiotic which acts as a protein synthesis inhibitor. It inhibits the incorporation of aminoacyl-tRNA into the C-terminal on a synthesizing polypeptide, resulting in the premature termination of the polypeptide chain. Puromycin is toxic to the growth of various eukaryote cells including mammalian cells. Concentrations of puromycin sufficient to inhibit the cell growth of mammalian cells range from 0.5-10 μg/ml. IC90s for puromycin to inhibit the growth of Plasmodium falciparum and Giardia lamblia are 60 ng/ml and 54 μg/ml, respectively.

ln Vitro |
Puromycin causes the accumulation of small peptides while preventing the synthesis of proteins following the formation of aminoacyl-sRNA. The release of partial peptide chains as a consequence of the splitting of ribosome-bound peptidyl-sRNA4 appears to be the cause of both of these effects. [1].
An analog of the 3' end of aminoacyl-tRNA, puromycin links non-specifically to expanding polypeptide chains, causing premature termination of translation. Puromycin inhibits growth in two different ways. The first way is by serving as an acceptor substrate and attacking the P site's peptidyl-tRNA to create a developing peptide. The second method involves binding to the A' site in competition with aminoacyl-tRNA[2]. Puromycin incorporation in neosynthesized proteins, when used in small quantities, directly correlates with the rate of mRNA translation in vitro. There are benefits to using puromycin immunodetection instead of radioactive amino acid labeling. By using immunofluorescence microscopy on individual cells and fluorescence-activated cell sorting on heterogeneous cell populations, it enables the direct assessment of translation activity[3]. |

ln Vivo |
In animals of 25 days old, 180 or 120 min of previous exposure to puromycin dihydrochloride inhibited subsequent amino acid transport. In animals of 50 days old, however, puromycin dihydrochloride failed to inhibit α-aminoisobutyric acid uptake.

Enzyme Assay |
Puromycin, an analog of the 3' end of aminoacyl-tRNA, causes premature termination of translation by being linked non-specifically to growing polypeptide chains. Here we report the interesting phenomenon that puromycin acting as a non-inhibitor at very low concentration (e.g. 0.04 microM) can bond only to full-length protein at the C-terminus. This was proved by using a carboxypeptidase digestion assay of the products obtained by Escherichia coli cell-free translation of human tau 4 repeat (tau4R) mRNA in the presence of low concentrations of puromycin or its derivatives. The tau4R mRNA was modified to code for three C-terminal methionines, which were radioactively labeled, followed by a stop codon. The translation products could not be digested by carboxy-peptidase if puromycin or a derivative was present at the C-terminus of full-length tau4R. Puromycin and its derivatives at 0. 04-1.0 microM bonded to 7-21% of full-length tau4R, depending on the ability to act as acceptor substrates. Furthermore, the bonding efficiency of a puromycin derivative to tau4R was decreased by addition of release factors. These results suggest that puromycin and its derivatives at concentrations lower than those able to compete effectively with aminoacyl-tRNA can bond specifically to full-length protein at a stop codon. This specific bonding of puromycin to full-length protein should be useful for in vitro selection of proteins and for in vitro and in vivo C-terminal end protein labeling[2].

Cell Assay |
When treated with puromycin dihydrochloride at different concentrations, the growth rates of T. thermophila changed. In the first 24 h, puromycin dihydrochloride at a concentration of 50 µg/ml reduced the growth rate by 80%, but did not completely block the cell growth; until 72 h, there was a gradual cell number increase. At 100 μg/ml, puromycin dihydrochloride completely blocked the cell growth; in the first 48 h under this condition, almost all of the cells died, surviving cells grew rapidly after 48 h. Puromycin dihydrochloride at 150 μg/ml completely inhibited the cell growth for 72 h. By 72 h, the majority of cells died, and then surviving cells grew. Puromycin dihydrochloride at 200 μg/ml made almost all the cells die by 48 h, and hence no survivors appeared.

Additional Infomation |
Puromycin dihydrochloride is a white powder. (NTP, 1992)
Puromycin is an aminonucleoside antibiotic, derived from the Streptomyces alboniger bacterium, that causes premature chain termination during translation taking place in the ribosome. It has a role as a nucleoside antibiotic, an antiinfective agent, an antineoplastic agent, a protein synthesis inhibitor, an antimicrobial agent, an EC 3.4.11.14 (cytosol alanyl aminopeptidase) inhibitor and an EC 3.4.14.2 (dipeptidyl-peptidase II) inhibitor. It is a conjugate base of a puromycin(1+). Puromycin is an antibiotic that prevents bacterial protein translation. It is utilized as a selective agent in laboratory cell cultures. Puromycin is toxic to both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, resulting in significant cell death at appropriate doses. Puromycin has been reported in Streptomyces anthocyanicus, Apis cerana, and other organisms with data available. Puromycin is an aminoglycoside antibiotic isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces alboniger. Acting as an analog of the 3' terminal end of aminoacyl-tRNA, puromycin incorporates itself into a growing polypeptide chain and causes its premature termination, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis. This agent has antimicrobial, antitrypanosomal, and antineoplastic properties; it is used as an antibiotic in cell culture. (NCI04) A cinnamamido ADENOSINE found in STREPTOMYCES alboniger. It inhibits protein synthesis by binding to RNA. It is an antineoplastic and antitrypanosomal agent and is used in research as an inhibitor of protein synthesis. |

Lanes 1 and 2, [35S]methionine-labeled products in the absence and presence of 0.04 µM puromycin, respectively. Lanes 3 and 5, translation products in the presence of 0.04 µM 32P-labeled rCpPuro and 32P-labeled dUpPuro, respectively. Lanes 4 and 6, translation products without mRNA in the presence of 0.04 µM 32P-labeled rCpPuro and 32P-labeled dUpPuro, respectively. Molecular weight bars on the right side of the gel show the positions of non-radioactive tau4R and molecular markers (molecular weight range 2512–16 949, Code no. 80-1129-83, Pharmacia LKB Biotechnology). (B) Efficiency of bonding (%) of 32P-labeled rCpPuro and dUpPuro to the C-terminal end of full-length tau4R. The value of 100% corresponds to the total products of cell-free translation of tau4R mRNA (N-terminal Met) in the absence of puromycin and its derivatives.
