METHOPRENE ACID Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Description
Methoprene Acid (53093-52-7) is an analog of insect juvenile hormone which acts as an insect growth regulator. Binds directly and selectively to the retinoid X receptor (RXR) acting as a transcriptional activator in both insect and mammalian cells with no activity at RAR.1?Negatively regulates thrombosis and hemostasis.2?Induces neurosteroid biosynthesis in human glial GI-1 cells.3?Increases the expression of the brown-fat-uncoupling-protein-1 gene (ucp-1).4
Uses
Methoprene Acid is an analog of insect juvenile hormone which acts as an insect growth regulator.
Definition
ChEBI: 11-methoxy-3,7,11-trimethyldodeca-2,4-dienoic acid is a sesquiterpenoid.
General Description
Retinoic acid receptor (RXR) agonist used in gene regulation research. Analog of juvenile hormone, an insect growth hormone.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Demethylation, oxidative cleavage, hydrolysis, photodegradation and degradation of methoprene by microorganism results in methoprene acid and other metabolites. Methoprene acid is an insect growth regulator, and is known to control ecdysteroid signaling during development and metamorphism. It is thus used to control larval growth in insects such as mosquitoes, cigarette beetles, fleas and fire ants.
