General description
A cell-permeable F-actin probe. A cyclodepsipeptide with antifungal and antitumor properties. A potent inducer of actin polymerization and stabilization in vitro. Prevents activation of store-mediated Ca2+ entry into cells. It competes with Phalloidin (Cat. No. 516640) for actin binding (Kd = 15 nM) and enhances apoptosis induced by interleukin 2 (IL-2) deprivation. A 1 mM (50 µg/71 µl) solution of Jasplakinolide, Jaspis johnstoni (Cat. No. 420127) in DMSO is also available.
