Rhodamine-conjugated Bisindolylmaleimide Inhibitor Purple solid. PROTECT FROM LIGHT. Fluorescent probe for protein kinase C (PKC). Binds to the catalytic site of all PKC enzymes. Provides a rapid and simple means for visualizing the distribution of PKC in cells. An effective PKC inhibitor (IC50 = 3.3 µM for PKCa; IC50 = 30 µM for PKA). May require cell permeabilization. Purity: ≥95% by HPLC. Excitation max.: 581 ± 4 nm, Emission max.: 562 ± 3 nm Absorption max. (MeOH): 560 nm; extinction coefficient: 110,000 ± 8,000 M-1cm-1; Ref.: Gallicano, G.I., et al. 1997. Mol.
