L8507-20UG - MAPACALCINE
MAPACALCINE | Product ID | L8507-20UG |
| Name | MAPACALCINE |
| Molecular formula | C407H621N115O131S10 |
| Description |
A 89 amino-acids peptide , natural, purified from Pione vastifica (the Boring sponge). |
| Biological activity | Mapacalcine blocks calcium currents via interaction with a yet unknown target protein. It haas no effect on L-type, T-type, N-type or P/Q-type voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCC). Has no effect on voltage-gated potassium or chloride channels. Blocks non-L-type VGCC calcium currents in mouse duodenal myocytes (IC50=0.2 µM). Blocks calcium influx induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation in rat hepatocytes. |
