Description
  • Antibiotic. Inhibits the growth of several Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Binds to MreB inducing disruption of the bacterial cell wall.
  • Competitive inhibitor of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR).
  • Cell motility inhibitor by specifically blocking contractility of the cell. Direct binding with monomeric actin disrupts the polymerization of actin into microfilaments necessary for cellular mechanical processes.
