Alamethicin（Cat No.:R057442）is a peptide antibiotic derived from Trichoderma viride that forms ion channels in lipid membranes, making it valuable for biochemical and pharmaceutical research. It exhibits broad antimicrobial activity, including against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Alamethicin’s mechanism involves pore formation in cell membranes, disrupting ion gradients and cellular function. Due to its unique channel-forming ability, it is commonly used in studies of membrane permeability, ion transport, and cell membrane dynamics. Alamethicin also shows potential for drug delivery and the development of ion channel-based therapeutics.
