monensin a

Monensin sodium salt (Monensin A sodium salt) is an antibiotic secreted by Streptomyces cinnamaticus and acts as an ion carrier that mediates Na+/H+ exchange. Monensin is an effective inhibitor of Wnt signaling. Monensin causes a significant increase in multivesicular bodies (MVBs) and regulates exosome secretion. Monensin sodium salt exhibits biological activities including anticoccidial, antibacterial, antitumor, and cell signaling regulatory effects. Monensin sodium salt can be used in studies of cellular ion transport and metabolism.

Monensin C is an oxygenated heterocyclic polyether antibiotic. It exhibits activity against bacteria, mycobacteria, fungi, and protozoa, though it is less effective against Gram-negative bacteria. Additionally, it shows inhibitory effects on HeLa cells.

3-O-Demethylmonensin A is a polyether antibiotic produced by Streptomyces cinnamonensis (strain LO-63).

Monensin is an orally active natural antibiotic that also functions as an ion carrier mediating Na+/H+ exchange and a Wnt inhibitor, effective against Gram-positive bacteria, Plasmodium falciparum, and certain viruses.

Monensin B is a polyketide compound derived from the bacterium Streptomyces cinnamonensis. Its production involves the fermentation of Streptomyces cinnamonensis, resulting in a mixture of Monensin A and Monensin B. The ratio of these two compounds depends on the concentrations of ethylmalonyl-CoA and methylmalonyl-CoA.

Monensin sodium salt (Standard) is the standard substance of Monensin sodium salt, and it is applicable for quantitative analysis, quality control, and related research in biochemical experiments. Monensin sodium is an antiprotozoal agent produced by Streptomyces cinnamonensis.Monensin sodium salt (Monensin A sodium salt) causes a marked enlargement of the MVBs and regulates exosome secretion
