Replaces Prod. #: BML-GR337
Cell permeable steroidal alkaloid. Structurally similar to cyclopamine (Prod. No. BML-GR334). Inhibits the sonic hedgehog (shh) pathway by interacting with smoothened. Can be used to induce abnormal morphogenesis in a number of experimental models. Tomatidine (Prod. No. BML-GR335) is a useful negative control.
