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. |
