Application Notes

Staurosporine is an unusual indolocarbazole alkaloid produced by a range of actinomycete species. It is a potent antitumor active, inducing apoptosis in a variety of cell lines. Staurosporine is a potent inhibitor of many kinases including protein kinase C, tyrosine kinase, CDK2/cyclin A and CDK4/cyclin D. At submicromolar concentrations, staurosporine inhibits both IKKalpha and IKKbeta.
