Ultra-pure; inhibits actin polymerization
Inhibits actin polymerization, microfilament organzation and microfilament-mediated processes. Acts via a different mechanism and 10- to 20-fold more potently than cytochalasins. Inhibits phagocytosis by macrophages. Exposure to 0.2 mg/ml for one hour produces maximal change in cell morphology.
