Proteins in the cytoplasm that provide structure to a cell are collectively known as the cytoskeleton. In addition to providing structure and protection to individual cells by acting as its musculature and skeleton, the cytoskeleton is involved in a cell’s mobility, division, organization, import and export.
Three categories of proteins comprise the cytoskeleton. These are actin filaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. AG has several reagents that target unique attributes of the cytoskeletal molecules, our most popular are:
- Cytochalasins are fungal metabolites that inhibits angiogenesis & tumor growth. Enhances PKC-dependent process of secretion. Does not inhibit glucose transport
- LY 294002 is a potent and specific cell-permeable inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-Kinase).
AG Scientific delivers quality assured reagents directly to scientists, from small-scale to bulk orders. Our leadership in bulk supply allows us to provide custom product packaging and create multiple product forms. We offer “just in time” delivery, private labeling, and custom formulations for specific research needs.
