RuBi-4AP, a derivative of 4-aminopyridine (4AP; HY-B0604), is a caged Kv channel blocker. RuBi-4AP contains a photolabile protecting group, allowing its effect to be controlled precisely in both space and time with light. RuBi-4AP can be used for the research of neuronal excitability, synaptic transmission, and signal propagation[1][2].
