cytochalasins — A group of fungal metabolites that inhibit the addition of G actin to a nucleation site and therefore perturb labile microfilament arrays. Cytochalasin B inhibits at around 1 m g/ml but at about 5 m g/ml begins to inhibit glucose transport.… … Dictionary of molecular biology
Cytochalasin — Cytochalasins are fungal metabolites that have the ability to bind to actin filaments and block polymerization and the elongation of actin. As a result of the inhibition of actin polymerization, cytochalasins can change cellular morphology,… … Wikipedia

Citocalasina D — La citocalasina D es un metabolito de origen fúngico capaz, como todas las citocalasinas, de unirse a filamentos de actina y, por ello, impedir su polimerización y elongación. Por ello, repercuten en la morfología celular e inhiben procesos… … Wikipedia Español
chaetoglobosins — Chaetoglobosin J is a fungal metabolite related to cytochalasins that will inhibit elongation at the barbed end of an actin microfilament. Chaetoglobosin A is produced by Chaetomium globosum. Chaetoglobosin K is a plant growth inhibitor and toxin … Dictionary of molecular biology
