General description

Chemical structure: macrolide

Application

Oligomycin was used to inhibit sucrose synthesis and 14C translocation in sunflower leaves, to study antibiotic resistance, and to study carotid chemoreceptor responses to O2 and CO2 in the cat. Inhibits the growth of Rhodotorula glutinis, Aspergillus niger and other molds.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Oligomycin blocks oxidative phosphorylation and the electron transport chain by inhibiting membrane bound mitochondrial ATP synthase (ATPase) and proton channel (pump, FO subunit) blocker.

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.

Other Notes

Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Keep in a dry place. Keep in a dry place.

The oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) system generates most of the ATP in respiring cells. ATP-depleting conditions, such as hypoxia, trigger responses that promote ATP production. However, how OXPHOS is regulated during hypoxia has yet to be elucidated. In this study, selective
