What is LATRUNCULIN B?
Description
Latrunculin B (76343-94-7) inhibits actin polymerization and disrupts microfilament organization.1 Significantly more potent than cytochalasins in the disruption of microfilament mediated processes2, causes shortening and thickening of stress fibers. Active in cell culture.3,4?Effective doses for latrunculin B vary depending upon cell type but are frequently in the low micromolar range. Note: Latrunculin B is slowly inactivated by fetal bovine serum.
The Uses of LATRUNCULIN B
Latrunculin B is an actin polymerization inhibitor.
The Uses of LATRUNCULIN B
In elucidation of molecular mechanisms of motile processes.
The Uses of LATRUNCULIN B
Latrunculin B from Latruncula magnifica has been used for actin depolymerisation in various experiments. It has also been used as a component in bone marrow-derived dendritic cell (BMDC) complete medium, to study the formation of tubules from phagosomes in dendritic cells.
