General description

βγ-Methyleneguanosine 5′-triphosphate (GMPPCP, GppCp) is a non-hydrolyzable analog of GTP.

Application

βγ-Methyleneguanosine 5′-triphosphate (GMPPCP, GppCp) is a non-hydrolyzable analog of GTP used in a variety of applications that involve GTP binding including GTP-activation, GTP-inhibition, GTP transport, GTP hydrolysis and GTP structure stabilization. GMPPCP (GuoPP[CH2MP) is used to modulate and study G proteins involved in cell signaling, protein synthesis and other metabolic processes.
β,γ-Methyleneguanosine 5′-triphosphate sodium salt has been used as a GTP analog to complex with dynamin for cryo-electron microscopy studies. It has also been used to complex with Di-Ras1/Di-Ras2 and nucleotide exchange delivery studies.

Cotranslational targeting of membrane and secretory proteins is mediated by the universally conserved signal recognition particle (SRP). Together with its receptor (SR), SRP mediates the guanine triphosphate (GTP)-dependent delivery of translating ribosomes bearing signal sequences to translocons on the target
