Nocardicin B

Nocarnickelamide B (Compound 2) is a linear peptide and ROCK1/2 inhibitor. Nocarnickelamide B exhibits dual inhibitory activity against ROCK1 and ROCK2 with IC50s of 14.9 μM and 21.9 μM, respectively. Nocarnickelamide B binds to the ATP-binding site. Nocarnickelamide B inhibits the activation of ROCK-regulated cytoskeletal contraction markers such as the myosin light chain. Nocarnickelamide B is potential for glaucoma reasearch[1].
