Mitochondrial uncoupler that depolarizes the mitochondrial membrane potential, reduces cellular ATP levels, activates 5‘-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and affects mitochondrial production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Potent activator of multiple Ca2+-sensitive K+ channels. Blocks several kinases and non-kinase proteins in vitro. Has been widely-used as a selective inhibitor of protein kinase Cδ (PKCδ) (IC50=3-6µM). Although there is extensive published documentation to support the use of rottlerin as a selective PKCδ inhibitor, there has been some controversy in the literature over this claim. Some of this controversy may arise from the fact that rottlerin is a promiscuous inhibitor and therefore may not always display the same properties as would be expected from a classical 1:1 inhibitor. Alternative name: Mallotoxin. Purity: ≥98% (HPLC). Solubility: Soluble in DMSO (up to 50mg/ml). Long Term Storage: Ambient.
