Description
General description
A potent, cell-permeable, inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC) that has been shown to selectively inhibit several PKC isozymes (IC₅₀ = 7 nM for PKCα and PKCβ; 6 nM for PKCγ; 10 nM for PKCδ; 60 nM for PKCζ). Gö 6983 does not effectively inhibit PKCµ (IC₅₀ = 20 µM) and can thus be used to differentiate PKCµ from other PKC isozymes.
A potent, cell-permeable, reversible, and ATP-competitive inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC) that inhibits several PKC isozymes (IC₅₀ = 7 nM for PKCα and PKCβ; 6 nM for PKCγ; 10 nM for PKCδ; and 60 nM for PKCζ). Gö 6983 does not effectively inhibit PKCµ (IC₅₀ = 20 µM) and can thus be used to differentiate PKCµfrom other PKC isozymes.
