Functions as a p50 decoy by blocking the intracellular recognition mechanism of p50 NLS.
Specificity
The p50 NLS inhibitory peptide also contains a protein transduction (PTD) sequence (DRQIKIWFQNRRMKWKK) derived from antennapedia which renders the peptide cell permeable.
The control peptide consists of only the PTD sequence
Preparation Method
Preparation of 5 mM Stock Solutions
PBS* is added directly to the vials to prepare the stock solutions.
Note: Bring the solution to room temperature and quick spin the tubes before opening the caps. p50 (NLS)

Application Notes
Inhibition of NF-kB p50(NLS) activity. The inhibitor peptide is designed to block p50 nuclear translocation. Optimal peptide concentrations and incubation times vary between model systems and should be determined empirically by users. A 100 uM final concentration may be a useful starting point. Please refer to Lin et al (1995) for additional information about how the inhibitor peptide has been used to block p50 nuclear translocation.

Background
The NLS sequence is required for nuclear translocation of NF-kB p50. In stimulated cells, NF-kB is in the cytoplasm in an inactive form and the NLS is masked. The degradation of IkBalpha during NF-kB signaling unmasks the NLS of NF-kB subunits and NF-kB is translocated to the nucleus. The p50 inhibitory peptide contains the p50 NLS sequence (VQRKRQKLM) and blocks the intracellular recognition mechanism for the NLS present on p50. Consequently p50 nuclear translocation is blocked.
