KAAD-Cyclopamine 3-Keto-N-(aminoethyl-aminocaproyl-dihydrocinnamoyl)cyclopamine Shh Signaling Antagonist II Pale yellow solid. PROTECT FROM LIGHT. PACKAGED UNDER INERT GAS. A potent, cell-permeable analog of Cyclopamine (Cat. No. 239803) that specifically inhibits the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling with similar or lower toxicity (IC50 = 20 nM in Shh-LIGHT2 assay; 50 nM in p2Ptch-/-cells; 500 nM in SmoA1-LIGHT cells). Binds to SmoA1 and promotes its exit from the endoplasmic reticulum. Suppresses both the ShhNp-induced pathway activity and SmoA1-induced reporter activity. Purity: ≥65% by HPLC.
