Biological description
Cell-permeable inhibitor of formin homology 2 (FH2) domains. Prevents formin-mediated actin nucleation (IC50 = ~15 µM) and processive barbed end elongation. Decreases the affinity of formin for the actin filament barbed end. Disrupts formin-dependent actin cytoskeletal structures in fission yeast and mammalian NIH 3T3 fibroblasts.

Handling
Wherever possible, you should prepare and use solutions on the same day. However, if you need to make up stock solutions in advance, we recommend that you store the solution as aliquots in tightly sealed vials at -20°C. Generally, these will be useable for up to one month. Before use, and prior to opening the vial we recommend that you allow your product to equilibrate to room temperature for at least 1 hour.
Toxic, refer to SDS for further information.
