Heptyl b-D-thioglucopyranoside1g

Heptyl b-D-thioglucopyranoside is a small molecule that is used as a regulator of the phosphatase enzyme (PP1). PP1 is an important enzyme in the regulation of cellular signaling pathways. Heptyl b-D-thioglucopyranoside interacts with the regulatory domain of PP1, which is required for its activity. The ligand binds to an antenna on the regulatory domain and induces conformational changes in the protein, leading to increased phosphatase activity. This small molecule also has two binding sites for ATP and L-phenylalanine, which are required for its regulatory function.
