Replaces Prod. #: ALX-350-240
Displays antimicrobial, anti-HIV and anti-inflammatory properties. Induces complete and reversible breakdown of Golgi membranes. Inhibits the association of β-COP and ADP-ribosylation factor to Golgi membranes, but unlike BFA, does not induce retrograde transport of Golgi enzymes into ER or cause random fusion of successive Golgi cisternae. Interacts with methylation enzymes. Shows anticancer activity.
