General description

A cell-permeable tetrahydroimidazo[1,2a]pyrazine dimer that directly binds to Gα subunit and inhibits heterotrimeric G protein signaling. Shown to selectively abolish Gαq signaling in HEK294 and CHO cells via trapping Gαq in the empty pocket conformation by permitting GDP exit but interdicting GTP entry. In addition, elicits a dose-dependent analgesic effect in carrageenan-induced hyperalgesia (0.1-1 mg/kg, i.v.) and in a chronic constriction injury mouse model (0.3-3 mg/kg, i.v.), with synergistic effect when co-administered with morphine.

Please note that the molecular weight for this compound is batch-specific due to variable water content. Please refer to the vial label or the certificate of analysis for the batch-specific molecular weight. The molecular weight provided represents the baseline molecular weight without water.
