Inhibitor of WNT Production-4 (IWP-4) inhibits WNT signaling by inactivating Porcupine, a membrane-bound O-acyltransferase responsible for palmitoylating WNT proteins, which is essential for WNT signaling ability and secretion (Chen et al.). IWP-4 impairs WNT pathway activity in vitro with an IC₅₀ value of 25 nM (Chen et al.).
