Biochem/physiol Actions

(-)-Indolactam V is a PKC activator shown to effect differentiation in embryonic stem cells leading to development of pancreatic precursors. It is active in the mouse model.
(−)-Indolactam V is naturally present in Streptoverticillium blastmyceticum. It serves as a precursor to the teleocidin class which are alkaloids. It is a the pharmacophore of lyngbyatoxin and teleocidins.

Conventional and novel protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes are the main targets of tumor promoters. We developed 1-hexylindolactam-V10 ( 5) as a selective activator for novel PKC isozymes that play important roles in various cellular processes related to tumor promotion

The CH/pi interaction between the indole ring of indolactam-V (IL-V) and the hydrogen atom at position 4 of Pro-11 of the PKCdelta C1B domain was evaluated using the mutant peptide of the PKCdelta C1B domain, in which the CH/pi interaction

Tumor promoters such as phorbol esters bind strongly to protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes to induce their activation. Since each PKC isozyme is involved in diverse biological events in addition to tumor promotion, the isozymes serve as promising therapeutic targets.

The total synthesis of protein kinase C activator (-)-indolactam V (IL-V) has been successfully completed with two separate approaches: From known 4-nitrotryptophan derivative 3 in 8 steps (49% overall yield) and from L-glutamic acid in 12 steps (18% overall yield)

The P450 cytochrome monooxygenase gene, ltxB, was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli as a 6xHis-tagged protein. The resulting recombinant LtxB was purified by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography and characterized biochemically. Purified LtxB demonstrated typical cytochrome P450 spectroscopic properties including substrate-induced
