An aminonucleoside antibiotic used for protein-synthesis inhibition and selection of genetically modified cells.
Puromycin dihydrochloride is an aminonucleoside antibiotic that inhibits protein synthesis by causing premature termination during translation. It is commonly used to select mammalian cells expressing the puromycin-resistance gene and as a research tool for studying translation and protein synthesis.
