Biological Activity: Tubacin reversibly inhibits α-tubulin deacetylation activity of HDAC6 (IC50 = 4 nM) The IC50 for other HDACs is 1000-fold higher, making tubacin both more selective and more potent than Tubastatin A, which also inhibits HDAC8.
CAS Number: 1350555-93-9
Description: Tubacin is a highly potent and selective, reversible, cell-permeable HDAC6 inhibitor . Tubacin does not inhibit HDAC6 histone deacetylase activity; instead, tubacin is specific for the tubulin deacetylase activity of HDAC6. It reversibly inhibits α-tubulin deacetylation in mammalian cells and increases α-tubulin acetylation levels with no effect on histone acetylation or cell cycle progression.
