TRAP240 Activators

TRAP240 activators encompass a spectrum of chemical compounds that enhance the functional activity of TRAP240 either directly or indirectly. Some activators function via kinase inhibition, such as Staurosporine, U0126, PD98059, LY294002, Wortmannin, and Triciribine. These chemicals can alter the phosphorylation state of transcription factors, thereby indirectly enhancing TRAP240 activity, given its role in transcriptional regulation.

Other activators, such as Forskolin, impact adenylate cyclase, leading to enhanced cAMP levels and subsequent stimulation of PKA. This PKA surge can influence the phosphorylation state of transcription factors, indirectly activating TRAP240. Compounds like Resveratrol, Niacin, and Quercetin activate SIRT1, which can modify the acetylation state of transcription factors, indirectly enhancing TRAP240 function. Lastly, Metformin, as an AMPK activator, may also enhance TRAP240 function by impacting cellular energy status and influencing the phosphorylation state of transcription factors.
