| Targets |
- Biological membranes (cell membranes/lipid bilayers) for ion channel formation [2]
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
- Alamethicin (U22324) acts as a membrane dipole potential modifier and induces ion channel formation in biological membranes. In artificial lipid bilayer membranes, it forms voltage-dependent cation channels at concentrations of 0.1–1 μM, increasing membrane permeability to monovalent cations (e.g., Na⁺, K⁺) [2]
- It modulates membrane dipole potential, thereby affecting the gating and function of intrinsic ion channels in cell membranes. At 0.5 μM, it shifts the dipole potential of lipid bilayers by ~50 mV, altering the open probability of ion channels [2] |
| Cell Assay |
- Lipid bilayer ion channel assay: Artificial lipid bilayers were prepared by depositing phospholipids on a porous support. Alamethicin (U22324) (0.1–1 μM) was added to the aqueous phase, and voltage was applied across the bilayer. Ion currents were recorded using patch-clamp techniques to detect channel formation and ion permeability [2]
- Membrane dipole potential measurement assay: Fluorescent probes sensitive to dipole potential were incorporated into lipid vesicles. Alamethicin (U22324) (0.2–0.8 μM) was incubated with the vesicles, and fluorescence intensity changes were measured at specific wavelengths to quantify dipole potential shifts [2] |

| Additional Infomation |
A cyclic 19-peptide antibiotic, which can be used as an ion carrier, is produced by Trichoderma viride strains. (Excerpt from Dictionary of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, 2nd edition, by Singleton and Sainsbury) - Aramamycin (U22324) is a cyclic peptide antibiotic biosynthesized by Trichoderma viride [1] - Its core mechanism involves insertion into the biomembrane (lipid bilayer) and self-assembly to form ion channels, thereby disrupting membrane permeability and ion homeostasis [2] - It is widely used as a tool for studying ion channel formation, membrane dipole potential regulation, and membrane transport processes [2] - The biosynthesis of aramamycin (U22324) involves peptide chain assembly mediated by nonribosomal peptide synthases (NRPS) in Trichoderma viride [1]

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
