Bioactivity | Turkesterone is a potent ecdysteroid. Turkesterone acts as an ecdysteroid receptor (EcR) agonist in some insect systems[1]. |
Invitro | The ability of Turkesterone to displace [3H]ponA from in vitro-expressed DmEcR/DmUSP receptor complex is assessed. The EC50 is 0.8 μM in the BII bioassay, Ki value is 90 nM in the receptor assay[1]. |
