Actin-related protein 3 (Arp3) heterodimerizes with Arp2 to form the Arp2/3 complex, which is involved in actin polymerization in a range of cell types. CK-636 is an inhibitor of Arp2/3 complex action that binds the complex and inhibits actin polymerization in vitro, using human, bovine and fission yeast proteins (IC50s = 4, 32, and 24 µM, respectively).{27974} It is cell permeable, as it prevents actin polymerization and the formation of actin filament comet tails by Listeria in infected SKOV3 cells (IC50 = 22 µM).{27974} CK-636 is used to explore the role of Arp2/3 complex in cellular functions, including epidermal barrier formation and T cell migration.{27975,27976}

    The PtdIn phosphates play an important role in the generation and transduction of intracellular signals.{8344,4096,14518} PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin is an affinity probe which allows the PIP3 to be detected through an interaction with the biotin ligand. This design allows PtdIns-(3,4,5)-P3-biotin to serve as a general probe for any protein with a high affinity binding interaction with inositol-(3,4,5)-triphosphate phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, PTEN, or PH-domain-containing proteins.

    The maintenance of embryonic stem cells in culture typically requires feeder cells and various exogenous factors found in serum. Murine embryonic stem (mES) cells can be maintained in the absence of feeder cells and serum but require the leukemia inhibitor factor (LIF) and bone morphogenic protein (BMP) to prevent differentiation and promote self-renewal.
