tetralithium(1+) ion [(2R,3S,4R,5R)-5-(2-amino-6-oxo-1H-purin-9-yl)-3,4-dihydroxyoxolan-2-yl]methyl [dioxido(sulfanylidene)-λ5-phosphanyl phosphonato]oxyphosphonate
IUPAC name
tetralithium(1+) ion [(2R,3S,4R,5R)-5-(2-amino-6-oxo-6,9-dihydro-1H-purin-9-yl)-3,4-dihydroxyoxolan-2-yl]methyl {[dioxido(sulfanylidene)-λ5-phosphanyl phosphonato]oxy}phosphonate
Biochem/physiol Actions GTP-γ-S is a non-hydrolyzable GTP analog, known for its role as a G-protein activator. It has recently been shown to protect proteins from proteolytic degradation, stimulate GLUT4 translocation in a tyrosine kinase-dependent manner, stimulate phospholipases and induce actin polymerization in vitro.
