A cyclododecadepsi-peptide ionophore antibiotic. Potassium ionophore of the mobile ion-carrier type that transports alkali metal ions across artificial or biological lipid membranes. Induces K+ conductivity in cell membranes at concentrations as low as 10-8 M. Often used in membrane electrode systems for determining K+ concentration. Uncouples oxidative phosphorylation by binding to sites on membranes rich in sulfhydryl groups. Induces apoptosis in murine thymocytes. Also reported to inhibit NGF-induced neuronal differentiation.
