Stemolecule™ Wnt Inhibitor IWP-3
Stemolecule™ Wnt Inhibitor IWP-3 is an antagonist of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Wnt Inhibitor IWP-3 prevents palmitylation of Wnt proteins by Porcupine (Porcn), a membrane-bound O-acyltransferase, thereby blocking Wnt secretion and activity1. It blocks phosphorylation of the Lrp6 receptor and accumulation of both Dvl2 and β-catenin.

Stemolecule™ Wnt Inhibitor IWP-3
Stemolecule™ Wnt Inhibitor IWP-3 was identified in a high throughput screen for antagonists of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway1. Wnt Inhibitor IWP-3 prevents palmitylation of Wnt proteins by Porcupine (Porcn), a membrane-bound O-acyltransferase, thereby blocking Wnt secretion and activity1. It has an IC50 of 40 nM and blocks phosporylation of the Lrp6 receptor and accumulation of both Dvl2 and β-catenin1.
