Identification
Name Latrunculin A
Accession Number DB02621 (EXPT02004)
Type small molecule
Groups experimental
Description

Latrunculin A is an actin binding macrolide purified from the red sea sponge Latrunculia magnifica. It is under investigation for the treatment of cancer. It disrupts actin polymerization, prevents mitotic spindle formation and thus cell replication.

2. Gelsolin

Pharmacological action: unknown

Calcium-regulated, actin-modulating protein that binds to the plus (or barbed) ends of actin monomers or filaments, preventing monomer exchange (end-blocking or capping). It can promote the assembly of monomers into filaments (nucleation) as well as sever filaments already formed
