General description

A broad spectrum potent inhibitor of protein tyrosine phosphatases. Also known to inhibit Na+,K+-ATPase, acid and alkaline phosphatases, phosphofructokinase, and adenylate kinase. Also inhibits the ATPase activity of the reconstituted binding protein-dependent ATP-Binding Cassette (ABC) transporter for maltose (MalFGK2) of Salmonella typhimurium in the micromolar range. Can be converted to pervanadate by hydrogen peroxide.
A broad spectrum potent inhibitor of protein tyrosine phosphatases. Also known to inhibit Na+/K+ ATPase, acid and alkaline phosphatases, phosphofructokinase, and adenylate kinase. Most recently shown to inhibit ATPase activity of the reconstituted binding protein-dependent ATP-Binding Cassette (ABC) transporter for maltose (MalFGK2) of Salmonella typhimurium in the micromolar range. Can be converted to pervanadate by hydrogen peroxide.

Endocytosis of ligand-activated receptors requires dynamin-mediated GTP hydrolysis, which is regulated by dynamin self-assembly. Here, we demonstrate that phosphorylation of dynamin I by c-Src induces its self-assembly and increases its GTPase activity. Electron microscopic analyses reveal that tyrosine-phosphorylated dynamin I

Small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) is a widespread regulatory mechanism of post-translational modification (PTM) that induces rapid and reversible changes in protein function and stability. Using SUMO conjugase Ubc9-overexpressing or knock-down cells in Parkinson's disease (PD) models, we demonstrate that SUMOylation

Phosphoprotein Phosphatases (Tyrosine)

Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) and related enzymes (more than a hundred coded by the human genome) are more numerous than serine/threonine phosphatases. They belong to four families, three of which possess a conserved cysteine for catalysis and some conserved features of 3-dimensional structure. The catalytic mechanism of these PTPs involves the transient formation of a covalently phosphorylated enzyme.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
