Hygromycin B

Supplier: Abcam

An aminoglycoside antibiotic produced by Streptomyces hygroscopicus that is routinely used as a selection agent for cells that contain hph or hyg Hygromycin resistant gene. Hygromycin B is thought to inhibit protein synthesis by strengthening the interaction of peptidyl-tRNA in the ribosomal acceptor ('A') site thereby preventing translocation of by EF-2 (elongation Factor-2). Hygromycin B is effective on most bacteria, fungi and higher eukaryotes.

Hygromycin B is an antibiotic substance isolated from Streptomyces hygroscopicus. Its mode of action is the inhibition of protein synthesis, by inducing the misreading of the m-RNA template in the prokaryote, (E. coli, at 100 mg/mL), lower eukaryotes (e.g., yeast, at 200 mg/mL) and higher eukaryotes (e.g., mammalian cells in culture). It selectively penetrates cells that have been rendered permeable by virus infection and combined with its potency to inhibit translation, it is an effective antiviral agent. Hygromycin B can be used as a dual-selection antibiotic when used in conjunction with G418 or Zeocin™ for cells transfected with two different vectors.
