Morc Activators
Morc Activators are a selection of chemical compounds that influence the functional activity of Morc through a variety of signaling pathways and cellular processes. Compounds such as Forskolin and 8-Bromo-cAMP, through the elevation of intracellular cAMP levels, activate protein kinase A (PKA), which in turn can phosphorylate proteins related to the activity of Morc. Similarly, IBMX increases cAMP and cGMP levels by inhibiting phosphodiesterases, potentially enhancing Morc's activity via PKA or PKG pathways. Calcium ionophores like Ionomycin and A23187 raise intracellular calcium levels, which could activate Morc if its activity is regulated by calcium-dependent mechanisms. PMA, a PKC activator, and Staurosporine, in its role as a kinase inhibitor, may alter phosphorylation patterns that positively influence Morc's activity. Spermine, with its capacity to modulate ion channels and signaling pathways, could also serve to enhance Morc's functionality.
Furthermore, compounds like Okadaic acid, by inhibiting protein phosphatases such as PP1 and PP2A, can lead to a net increase in protein phosphorylation, which might enhance Morc's activity if it is positively regulated by phosphorylation. Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), while known for its antioxidant properties, also modulates protein kinases that could enhance Morc's functionality. LY294002 and U0126, by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt and MAPK/ERK pathways, respectively, could indirectly increase Morc's activity by reducing inhibitory phosphorylation events or competing signal transduction mechanisms. These Morc Activators, through their targeted biochemical actions, contribute to the enhancement of Morc's functional activity without the need for upregulating its expression or direct activation, ensuring a precise modulation of its role within the cell.

Forskolin | 66575-29-9 | sc-3562 sc-3562A sc-3562B sc-3562C sc-3562D | 5 mg 50 mg 1 g 2 g 5 g | $78.00 $153.00 $740.00 $1413.00 $2091.00 | 73 | |
Forskolin activates adenylyl cyclase, increasing the levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP) within cells. Elevated cAMP activates protein kinase A (PKA), which can then phosphorylate and enhance the activity of various proteins, including "Morc" if "Morc" is subject to regulation by PKA-mediated phosphorylation. | ||||||
PMA | 16561-29-8 | sc-3576 sc-3576A sc-3576B sc-3576C sc-3576D | 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg 25 mg 100 mg | $41.00 $132.00 $214.00 $500.00 $948.00 | 119 | |
PMA activates protein kinase C (PKC) which is involved in several signal transduction pathways. PKC can phosphorylate and regulate proteins directly or indirectly associated with "Morc", thus potentially enhancing "Morc" activity. | ||||||
Ionomycin | 56092-82-1 | sc-3592 sc-3592A | 1 mg 5 mg | $78.00 $270.00 | 80 | |
Ionomycin is a calcium ionophore, which raises intracellular calcium levels. Calcium signaling is pivotal in numerous cellular processes and can modify the activity of proteins by affecting their phosphorylation state or conformation. If "Morc" activity is regulated by calcium-dependent processes, ionomycin may enhance its functional activity. | ||||||
8-Bromo-cAMP | 76939-46-3 | sc-201564 sc-201564A | 10 mg 50 mg | $126.00 $328.00 | 30 | |
8-Bromo-cAMP is a cell-permeable cAMP analog that activates cAMP-dependent pathways by mimicking cAMP. It can activate PKA, leading to the potential enhancement of "Morc" activity if "Morc" is regulated by PKA-mediated phosphorylation. | ||||||
IBMX | 28822-58-4 | sc-201188 sc-201188B sc-201188A | 200 mg 500 mg 1 g | $260.00 $350.00 $500.00 | 34 | |
IBMX is a non-selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterases, enzymes responsible for breaking down cAMP and cGMP. By inhibiting these enzymes, IBMX can increase cAMP and cGMP levels, potentially enhancing "Morc" activity through PKA or PKG pathways if "Morc" is regulated by these kinase-mediated phosphorylation events. | ||||||
A23187 | 52665-69-7 | sc-3591 sc-3591B sc-3591A sc-3591C | 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg 25 mg | $55.00 $131.00 $203.00 $317.00 | 23 | |
A23187 is an ionophore that selectively transports calcium ions across cell membranes. By increasing intracellular calcium concentration, it can activate calcium-dependent signaling pathways, potentially enhancing "Morc" activity if "Morc" is regulated by calcium signaling. | ||||||
Staurosporine | 62996-74-1 | sc-3510 sc-3510A sc-3510B | 100 µg 1 mg 5 mg | $82.00 $153.00 $396.00 | 113 | |
Staurosporine is a broad-spectrum protein kinase inhibitor, but paradoxically, it can enhance the activity of certain proteins by selectively inhibiting regulatory kinases. If "Morc" is typically repressed by a kinase that staurosporine inhibits, this could result in enhanced "Morc" activity. | ||||||
Okadaic Acid | 78111-17-8 | sc-3513 sc-3513A sc-3513B | 25 µg 100 µg 1 mg | $291.00 $530.00 $1800.00 | 78 | |
Okadaic acid is a potent inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 (PP1) and 2A (PP2A). Inhibition of these phosphatases can lead to increased phosphorylation of proteins. If "Morc" activity is enhanced by phosphorylation, okadaic acid could increase "Morc" activity indirectly. | ||||||
(−)-Epigallocatechin Gallate | 989-51-5 | sc-200802 sc-200802A sc-200802B sc-200802C sc-200802D sc-200802E | 10 mg 50 mg 100 mg 500 mg 1 g 10 g | $43.00 $73.00 $126.00 $243.00 $530.00 $1259.00 | 11 | |
EGCG is a potent antioxidant that can also modulate various signaling pathways, including protein kinases. If "Morc" is regulated by kinase activity that EGCG influences, this could lead to enhanced "Morc" activity. | ||||||
