88-58-4 Description |
Mobilizes Ca2+ specifically from the Ins(1,4,5)P3-sensitive Ca2+ stores by inhibiting microsomal and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase activity. Does not affect mitochondrial Ca2+ fluxes or plasma membrane Ca2+/Mg2+ ATPase activity. Useful for the study of endomembrane Ca2+ stores and plasma membrane Ca2+ permeability pathways. |
88-58-4 Uses |
2,5-Di-tert-butylhydroquinone is the oxidation substrate used to measure the catalytic activity of the copper(II) enzyme-like catalysts. |
