Biological Activity:
Cytochalasin J is used in actin polymerization studies. Cytochalasins are potent mycotoxins which bind to the barbed end of actin filaments resulting in inhibition of both the association and dissociation of subunits. Used as a tool for cytological research. These fungal toxins are related by their chemical structure characterized by a highly substituted hydrogenated isoindole ring to which is fused a macrocyclic ring. Cytochalasin J is the deacetyl analogue of cytochalasin H and exhibits similar, though less potent, antibacterial, antifungal, nematocidal and antitumor activities.
The cytochalasins are cell-permeable fungal metabolites that inhibit actin polymerization.This interferes with such diverse processes as cell movement, growth, phagocytosis, degranulation, and secretion.Cytochalasin J is a deacetylated analog of cytochalasin H that weakly inhibits actin assembly but significantly alters mitotic spindle microtubule organization and kinetochore structure. Like cytochalasin H, cytochalasin J suppresses the production of reactive oxygen species by stimulated human neutrophils.
