| Targets |
Bacterial ribosome (protein synthesis machinery). Althiomycin inhibits protein synthesis in bacteria. It is effective against E. coli at concentrations of 1 and 10 µg/mL but does not inhibit protein synthesis in isolated rabbit reticulocytes at 100 µg/mL, indicating selectivity for bacterial ribosomes. The compound is a thiopeptide antibiotic.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Althiomycin demonstrates potent antibacterial activity in vitro against Gram-positive bacteria, with MICs of 25 µg/mL for S. aureus, 25 µg/mL for S. epidermidis, and 3.1 µg/mL for S. pyogenes. It inhibits protein synthesis in E. coli at concentrations of 1 and 10 µg/mL. The compound's antibacterial spectrum and potency have been characterized in various in vitro assays.
|
| ln Vivo |
In vivo, Althiomycin has been studied for its antibacterial efficacy in animal models of infection. However, detailed in vivo data are limited. The compound was originally isolated from Streptomyces and has been the subject of research due to its potent biological activity. It is not currently used clinically as an antibiotic.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
In vitro antibacterial assays for Althiomycin involve determining minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against various bacterial strains. Bacteria are cultured in appropriate media and treated with Althiomycin at varying concentrations. MIC values are determined as the lowest concentration that inhibits visible bacterial growth. Protein synthesis inhibition assays are performed using cell-free translation systems or bacterial cultures.
|
| Cell Assay |
Cellular assays for Althiomycin are not typically performed, as the compound acts directly on bacterial ribosomes. However, bacterial cultures are used to assess antibacterial activity. Protein synthesis inhibition can be measured by incorporating radiolabeled amino acids into newly synthesized proteins in the presence of the compound.
|

*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.
