Antibiotics

An antibiotic is a chemical substance that kills bacteria and also some protozoa and fungi or that inhibits their proliferation. Due to their manifold, antimicrobial effects, antibiotics are used as therapeutics in case of bacterial infections. In life science research, antibiotics are often used for selecting positive clones after transformation with recombinant DNA. This method uses resistance genes that are part of the transformed DNA. Alternatively, antibiotics are used as inhibitors to specifically shut down certain targets, including enzymes or receptors of bacteria and cells. Here, you will find an extensive portfolio of antibiotics, from ampicillin to zelkovamycin, that you can use as inhibitors or for the selection of resistant bacteria.

Mitomycin C
Mitomycin C

Item number: Cay11435-5

Mitomycin C (MMC) is an antitumor antibiotic that was discovered as a fermentation product of S. caespitosus. As an alkylating agent, its activity depends on reductive activation either through low pH or DT-diaphorase or NADH cytochrome c reductase. Activated MMC crosslinks double stranded DNA and is widely used as...

Oligomycin Complex
Oligomycin Complex

Item number: Cay11341-5

Oligomycins are macrolides created by Streptomyces species that can be toxic to other organisms through their ability to inhibit mitochondrial membrane-bound ATP synthases. The mitochondrial F1FO ATP synthase can switch to an ATP hydrolase during ischemia, so that, under these conditions, inhibition by oligomycins...

Actinomycin D
Actinomycin D

Item number: Cay11421-5

Actinomycin D is a cyclic polypeptide-containing antibiotic that binds to DNA and blocks transcription. It binds to pre-melted double-stranded DNA in transcription bubbles and once bound is slow to dissociate. DNA in transcriptionally hyperactive cancer cells efficiently and rapidly bind actinomycin D at low...
