| Description | CK-666 (442633-00-3) is a potent, selective and reversible inhibitor of ARP2/3 complex (actin related proteins 2 and 3) with an IC50?= 4 μM for human ARP2/3.1?Blocks actin nucleation and radically alters lamellipodial actin architecture, suspended cell shape and the cell spreading process.2 CK-666 attenuates BBB dysfunction induced by methamphetamine.3?It is an important new tool for studying actin assembly and the diverse range of actin-related processes in normal4 and pathophysiology5. | | Uses | CK-666 may be used to study Arp2/3-mediated structural changes in cells. | | General Description | A cell-permeable indolyl-fluorobenzamide compound that selectively inhibits actin assembly mediated by actin-related protein Arp2/3 complex of human, bovine, fission yeast S. pombe, and budding yeast S. cerevisiae origin (IC50 = 4, 17, 5, and 12 μM, respectively), without affecting S. pombe formin domain Cdc12(FH2)-mediated or the spontaneous actin polymerization. Shown to inhibit the actin filament "comet tails" formation around intracellular Listeria in infected SKOV3 cells (IC50 = 7 μM) in a reversible manner. Structrual studies indicate that CK-666 targets a pocket formed between subdomain 4 of Arp2 and subdomain 1 of Arp3, preventing Arp2/3 from shifting into an active conformation upon N-WASP-VCA binding. CK-666 and CK-869 (Cat. No. 182516) exhibit different modes of binding, resulting in their different yeast cross-reactivities. CK-689 (Cat. No. 182517) can serve as a negative control. | | Biochem/physiol Actions | CK-666 binds to Arp2/3 complex, stabilizes the inactive state of the complex and prevents its movement into active conformation. | | References | 1) Nolan et al.
