Product Data Sheet

(2R,3R)-Butane-2,3-diol

Catalog No. A48042

main product photo
(2R,3R)-Butane-2,3-diol functions as a reversible agonist of lanthanum-sensitive calcium channels in bacteria, specifically Escherichia coli, with an EC50 of approximately 25 mM. This compound interacts with calcium channel proteins, promoting channel opening and facilitating extracellular calcium influx, which leads to intracellular calcium transients. Such activity plays a crucial role in regulating bacterial physiological processes, including growth, metabolism, and signal transduction. Additionally, (2R,3R)-Butane-2,3-diol is valuable for investigating bacterial-host cell signaling dynamics and studying conditions like lactose intolerance and other related gastrointestinal disorders.
