Abstract excerpt
The macrolactone archazolid is a novel, highly specific V-ATPase inhibitor with an IC(50) value in the low nanomolar range. The binding site of archazolid is presumed to overlap with the binding site of the established plecomacrolide V-ATPase inhibitors bafilomycin and concanamycin in subunit c of the membrane-integral V(O) complex. Using a semi-synthetic derivative of archazolid for photoaffinity labeling of the...
