Autogramin-2 (2375541-45-8) is an inhibitor of autophagy (autophagy induced by amino acid starvation IC50 = 270 nM; Rapamycin IC50 = 140 nM) acting via selective targeting of the cholesterol transfer protein GRAM domain-containing protein 1A (GRAMD1A).? Autogramin-2 inhibition of GRAMD1A inhibits biogenesis of the autophagosome.

Autogramin-2 potently inhibits autophagy induced by either starvation (IC50=0.27 μM) or mTORC1 inhibition (Rapamycin; IC50=0.14 μM)[1].
