Description

Commonly used as an agent to induce apoptosis and can calibrate potentiometric responses in membrane experiments involving potential-sensitive dyes

  • Valinomycin is a natural, lipid-soluble molecule (Mr = approximately 1110) that binds potassium ions and facilitates their transfer across lipid bilayers (i.e., it is an ionophore)
  • A macrocyclic molecule formed from 12 alternating amino acids and esters, synthesized by specific Streptomyces
  • Exhibits a 10,000-fold selectivity for K+ over Na+
  • Valinomycin is a potent antibiotic
  • K+ selective ionophore
  • Neutrally charged
  • Soluble in ethanol, DMSO, etc., but insoluble in water
