17-AAG (17-N-Allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin), also known by its NSC number 330507 and CP number 127374, is a well-studied inhibitor of Heat Shock Protein 90 (HSP90). HSP90 is a molecular chaperone that plays a critical role in the stabilization and activation of a wide range of client proteins, many of which are involved in oncogenic processes. By inhibiting HSP90, 17-AAG disrupts the function of these client proteins, leading to the degradation of oncogenic proteins and ultimately inhibiting cancer cell growth and survival.

Providing storage is as stated on the product vial and the vial is kept tightly sealed, the product can be stored for up to 24 months.
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
