General description
A cell-permeable F-actin probe. This macrocyclic cyclodepsipeptide, isolated from the marine sponge Jaspis johnstoni, is a potent inducer of actin polymerization and stabilization in vitro. It competes with Phalloidin (Cat. No. 516640) for actin binding (Kd = 15 nM) and enhances apoptosis induced by interleukin 2 (IL-2) deprivation. Also displays fungicidal, insecticidal, and anticancer properties.

The cytoskeletal protein actin plays a critical role in the pathogenicity of the intracellular parasite, Toxoplasma gondii, mediating invasion and egress, cargo transport, and organelle inheritance. Advances in live cell imaging have revealed extensive filamentous actin networks in the Apicomplexan
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is the primary pathway for receptor and cargo internalization in eukaryotic cells. It is characterized by a polyhedral clathrin lattice that coats budding membranes. The mechanism and control of lattice assembly, curvature, and vesicle formation at the plasma
Recent work suggests that Ras small GTPases interact with the anionic lipid phosphatidylserine (PS) in an isoform-specific manner, with direct implications for their biological functions. Studies on PS-Ras associations in cells, however, have relied on immuno-EM imaging of membrane sheets.
Differentiation of adipose progenitor cells into mature adipocytes entails a dramatic reorganization of the cellular architecture to accommodate lipid storage into cytoplasmic lipid droplets. Lipid droplets occupy most of the adipocyte volume, compressing the nucleus beneath the plasma membrane. How
