valinomycin การใช้

• Valinomycin acts as a nonmetallic isoforming agent in potassium selective electrodes.
• Ionophores such as valinomycin also display a marked preference for the potassium cation over other cations.
• For example, potassium selective electrodes are available that make use of the naturally occurring macrocyclic antibiotic valinomycin.
• Like valinomycin and nonactin, the gramicidin channel is selective for potassium over sodium, but only slightly so.
• Third, Mg 2 + efflux was observed via Mrs2p upon the artificial depolarisation of the mitochondrial membrane by valinomycin.
• ""'Streptomyces cyaneofuscatus " "'is a bacterium species from the genus of " Streptomyces " which has been isolated from soil in Daghestan in Russia . " Streptomyces cyaneofuscatus " can be used for valinomycin biosynthesis.
