N-WASP inhibitor; inhibits Arp2/3 activation
Key Product Details
Description
N-WASP inhibitor; inhibits Arp2/3 activation
Product Description
Wiskostatin is an inhibitor of neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (N-WASP) activity. Interacts with the regulatory GTPase-binding domain of N-WASP; inhibits activation of Arp2/3 complex by maintaining N-WASP in an inactive conformation. Also inhibits PIP2-induced actin polymerization (EC50 ~ 4μM).Product Specifications
