RK-682, a bioactive compound originally isolated from the fermentation of Streptomyces sp. 88-682, is an inhibitor of the PTPs.1 It inhibits the phosphorylation of CD45 and VHR with IC50 values of 54 and 2 µM, respectively, and arrests cell cycle progress at the G1/S transition.1 It is also reported to inhibit heparanase (IC50 = 17 µM), an endo-β-D-glucuronidase involved in tumor cell invasion and angiogenesis.2 RK-682 (calcium salt) is a less soluble version of the free acid.3
