SAICAR (Succino-AICAR) is a novel intermediate used in the de novo synthesis of purine nucleotides. It activates pyruvate kinase isoform M2 (PKM2) in an isozyme-selective manner, with an EC50 of 0.3 mM. SAICAR stimulates PKM2 and promotes cancer cell survival in glucose-limited conditions. SAICAR stimulates pyruvate kinase isoform M2 and promotes cancer cell survival in glucose-limited conditions. SAICAR induces protein kinase activity of PKM2 that is necessary for sustained proliferative signaling of cancer cells. SAICAR-mediated PKM2 protein kinase activity is necessary for EGF-induced cancer cell proliferation.
ln Vitro |
PKM2 is nuclear localized upon SAICAR accumulation. PKM2-SAICAR increases PKM2's susceptibility to SAICAR binding via phosphorylating and activating Erk1/2. Furthermore, to cause mitogen-induced cell proliferation and persistent Erk1/2 activation, PKM2-SAICAR was required. Inducing H3 T11 and Erk1/2 phosphorylation requires and is satisfied by SAICAR-PKM2 interaction[2]. When cells are starved of glucose, the amount of SAICAR within them rises oscillatorily, which in turn causes cancer cells to activate PKM2. Additionally, in glucose-limited conditions, the SAICAR-PKM2 connection increases the survival of cancer cells. Adsl-kd cells and cells overexpressing PAICS fare better under glucose limitation, however paics-kd cells perished sooner than control-kd cells. Under glucose-restricted environments, SAICAR increases cancer cell survival1.

Additional Infomation |
SAICAR is a 1-(phosphoribosyl)imidazolecarboxamide resulting from the formal condesation of the darboxy group of 5-amino-1-(5-O-phosphono-beta-D-ribofuranosyl)-1H-imidazole-4-carboxylic acid with the amino group of L-aspartic acid. It has a role as an Escherichia coli metabolite and a mouse metabolite. It is functionally related to a succinic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a SAICAR(4-).
SAICAR is a metabolite found in or produced by Escherichia coli (strain K12, MG1655). Saicar has been reported in Homo sapiens, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and Apis cerana with data available. SAICAR (or (S)-2-[5-Amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamido]succinate) is a substrate for the multifunctional protein ADE2. SAICAR is an intermediate in purine metabolism. (S)-2-[5-Amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl)imidazole-4-carboxamido]succinate is converted from 5-Amino-1-(5-phospho-D-ribosyl) imidazole-4-carboxylate via phosphoribosylaminoimidazole-succinocarboxamide synthase [EC: 6.3.2.6] or SAICAR synthase. This enzyme catalyses the seventh step out of ten in the biosynthesis of purine nucleotides. The appearance of succinylaminoimidazolecarboxamide riboside (SAICAriboside) and succinyladenosine (S-Ado) in cerebrospinal fluid, urine, and to a lesser extent in plasma is characteristic of a heritable deficiency Adenylosuccinate lyase deficiency. . SAICAR is a metabolite found in or produced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. |

For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 55.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
