General description

A highly potent, cell-permeable, reversible, and selective inhibitor of Rho-associated protein kinases (Ki = 140 nM for p160ROCK). Also inhibits ROCK-II with equal potency. The inhibition is competitive with respect to ATP. Exhibits 10- to 50-fold lower affinity for PKCε than p160ROCK. Does not affect the activity of p21-activated protein kinase (PAK) even at higher concentrations (~100 µM). Also acts as a potent inhibitor of agonist-induced Ca2+ sensitization of myosin phosphorylation and smooth muscle contraction. Prevents apoptosis and enhances the survival and cloning efficiency of dissociated hES cells without affecting their pluripotency.

Physical form

A 10 mM (1 mg/296 µl) solution of Y-27632 (Cat. No. 688000)in DMSO.

Preparation Note

Following initial thaw, aliquot and freeze (-20°C).
