General description

Chemical structure: peptide

Application

Valinomycin is a cyclic dodecadepsipeptides with potassium ionophoric properties. It is used to study ion transport in biological systems. It is used to study its inhibitory effect on intact cells and the growth of bacteria and yeast. It is used to induce apoptosis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

K+-selective ionophoric cyclodepsipeptide; potassium ionophore which uncouples oxidative phosphorylation, induces apoptosis in murine thymocytes, inhibits NGF-induced neuronal differentiation and antagonizes ET-induced vasoconstriction.
Valinomycin is a K+-selective ionophoric cyclodepsipeptide. It is a potassium ionophore which uncouples oxidative phosphorylation, induces apoptosis in murine thymocytes, inhibits NGF-induced neuronal differentiation and antagonizes ET-induced vasoconstriction. It is reported to be insecticidal, nematicidal and antiviral.

Daptomycin is a lipopeptide antibiotic that is used clinically to treat severe infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria. Its bactericidal action involves the calcium-dependent binding to membranes containing phosphatidylglycerol, followed by the formation of membrane-associated oligomers. Bacterial cells exposed to daptomycin

Compounds containing cyanoguanidine and 3-amino-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide have been studied as anion receptors and transporters. Significant affinity for oxo-anions was observed in organic solution and the receptors were found to function as transmembrane chloride/nitrate antiporters with transport rates enhanced in the presence
