Gene Information

Biochem/physiol Actions

Bisindolylmaleimides (BIM) comprises a group of 11 compounds from BIM-I to BIM-XI. BIMs act as an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC). They are derived from staurosporine. BIM IX due to its proapoptotic functionality could be useful in targeting tumor proliferation.
