Biological Context

Cytochalasin B is a cell-permeable mycotoxin which binds to the barbed end of actin, reversibly inhibiting the elongation and shortening of actin filaments.1 By disrupting actin polymerization, cytochalasin B blocks diverse cellular functions, including cell division, migration, phagocytosis, exocytosis, chemotaxis, and glucose transport.2,3,4 Cytochalasin B is broadly used in cytological studies involving any of these many processes that depend on actin polymerization.5,6,7
