Tautomycetin
Tautomycetin is a potent, selective inhibitor of PP1, with IC50 values being 1.6 nM and 62 nM for the PP1 and PP2A subtypes, respectively. PP1, one of four major protein serine/threonine phosphatases (PPs), plays an important role in regulation of many cellular events such as transcription, translation, cell division, muscle contraction, glycogen synthesis, and neuronal signaling. Compared with over 40 species of natural phosphatase inhibitors reported, tautomycetin is the most specific PP1 inhibitor, which can be served as a novel powerful tool to elucidate the physiological roles of PP1 in a variety of biological events.

Dosage form |
0.05 mg/kg. Tautomycetin solubilized in PBS or in microemulsion form for 30 days after heterocardiac transplantation. |
Application |
Immunosuppressive activity of tautomycetin is effective in an in vivo organ transplantation model (rats after heterotopic cardiac transplantation). |
Other notes |
Please test the solubility of all compounds indoor, and the actual solubility may slightly differ with the theoretical value. This is caused by an experimental system error and it is normal. |
