Cytochalasin B

CAT N°: 11328

Cytochalasin B is a cell-permeable mycotoxin which binds to the barbed end of actin, reversibly inhibiting the elongation and shortening of actin filaments.{20528} By disrupting actin polymerization, cytochalasin B blocks diverse cellular functions, including cell division, migration, phagocytosis, exocytosis, chemotaxis, and glucose transport.{20527,20526,20524} Cytochalasin B is broadly used in cytological studies involving any of these many processes that depend on actin polymerization.{20525,20530,20529}
