Biological Activity

[Description]:

Tautomycin, an antifungal antibiotic isolated from the bacterium Streptomyces verticillatus, is a potent and specific inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A and induces contraction of smooth muscle under Ca2+-free conditions, with Kiapp values of 0.16 nM and 0.4 nM for PP1 and PP2A, respectively[1][2].

Signaling Pathways >> Metabolic Enzyme/Protease >> Phosphatase
Research Areas >> Inflammation/Immunology

[Target]

Kiapp: 0.16 nM (PP1), 0.4 nM (PP2A)[1].


[In Vitro]

MTC cell growth is inhibited in a dose-dependent manner by Tautomycin (0-1000 nM, 48 hours)[2]. NE markers ASCL1 and CgA in human MTC cells are decreased in a dose-dependent manner by Tautomycin (0-1000 nM, 48 hours)[2]. Cell Proliferation Assay[2] Cell Line: Human MTC cells Concentration: 0-1000 nM Incubation Time: 48 hours Result: Inhibited MTC cell growth in a dose-dependent manner. Western Blot Analysis[2] Cell Line: Human MTC cells Concentration: 0-1000 nM Incubation Time: 48 hours Result: Led to a dose-dependent decrease in the NE markers ASCL1 and CgA.
