General description

A cell-permeable, reversible and competitive inhibitor of rat brain CaM kinase II (Ki = 370 nM). Selectively binds to the CaM binding site of the enzyme and prevents the association of CaM with CaMKII. Has no significant effects on protein kinase A activity. Induces G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in NIH/3T3 cells. A 5 mM (1 mg/399 µl) solution of KN-93 (Cat. No. 422712) in DMSO is also available.
Cell-permeable, reversible, and competitive inhibitor of rat brain Ca+2/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (Ki = 370 nM). KN-93 selectively binds to the Calmodulin (CaM) binding site of the enzyme and prevents the association of CaM with CaM Kinase II. Selectively binds to the CaM binding site of the enzyme and prevents the association of CaM with CaMKII. Has no significant effect on protein kinase A activity. Induces G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in NIH 3T3 cells.

The induction of synaptic plasticity at an individual dendritic glutamatergic spine can affect neighboring spines. This local modulation generates dendritic plasticity microdomains believed to expand the neuronal computational capacity. Here, we investigate whether local modulation of plasticity can also occur

The modification of proteins by O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is associated with the regulation of numerous cellular processes. Despite the importance of O-GlcNAc in mediating cellular function our understanding of the mechanisms that regulate O-GlcNAc levels is limited. One factor known

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 7 (mGlu7) is an inhibitory heterotrimeric G-protein-coupled receptor that modulates neurotransmitter release and synaptic plasticity at presynaptic terminals in the mammalian central nervous system. Recent studies have shown that rare mutations in glutamate receptors and synaptic scaffold
