Leptomycin A is an inhibitor of CRM1 (exportin 1) that blocks CRM1 interaction with nuclear export signals, preventing the nuclear export of a broad range of proteins.{15319} Leptomycin A inhibits Rev translocation, though less potently than leptomycin B (Item No. 10004976) with IC50 values of 0.8 and 0.1 nM, respectively after 7 hours.{31689} Rev export to the cytoplasm is required for HIV-1 replication. Leptomycin A was originally identified as an antifungal agent.
