Metarrestin Inhibitor

Metarrestin is a first-in-class perinucleolar compartment inhibitor with a favorable PK profile, which effectively suppresses metastasis. Metarrestin disrupts the nucleolar structure and inhibits RNA polymerase (Pol) I transcription, at least in part by interacting with the translation elongation factor eEF1A2.

Small volumes of Metarrestin, inhibitor vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.
