Microcystin LR (CAS 101043-37-2) is a  novel freshwater cyanotoxin.1 Tumor promoter. Potent and selective inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), IC50=0.04 nM.  PP1, IC50=1.7 nM and PP2B are less sensitive and PP2C is not inhibited (up to 4 mM).2 Considered to be cell-impermeable with the exception of hepatocytes which take it up via an organic anion transporter.3
