Description

5-Iodotubercidin (Itu) is an adenosine derivative that initiates glycogen synthesis in hepatocytes by causing inactivation of phosphorylase α and activation of glycogen synthase α (maximal effects with ~20 µM Itu).1 Itu can inhibit a broad range of PKs including PKA (IC50 = 5-10 µM), phosphorylase kinase (IC50 = 5-10 µM), casein kinase I (IC50 = 0.4 µM) and II (IC50 = 10.9 µM), and PKC (IC50 = 0.4 µM), which appears to account for its glycogenic action.2 Itu is also a highly potent inhibitor of ERK2 (Ki = 525 nM), a protein kinase with important roles in cell proliferation.3 Mediated by the inhibition of acetyl-CoA carboxylase, Itu increases fatty acid oxidation activity of the liver at the expense of lipogenesis.4
