Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

Venturicidin A (Aabomycin A1) is a natural product derived from Streptomyces, possessing antifungal, anti-Trypanosoma brucei, anti-Leishmania donovani, and ATP synthase inhibitory activities. Venturicidin A acts as an antibiotic adjuvant, promoting the uptake of aminoglycoside antibiotics and enhancing bactericidal efficacy. Venturicidin A inhibits ATP synthesis by blocking proton translocation through the F_O subunit. In bloodstream-form Trypanosoma brucei, Venturicidin A causes collapse of the mitochondrial membrane potential; in fungi, it disrupts cell membrane integrity, induces leakage of cytoplasmic contents, elevates ROS levels, and downregulates the expression of fungal pathogenicity-related genes. Venturicidin A exhibits antifungal activity against Botrytis cinerea. Venturicidin A is used in research on bacterial infections, trypanosome/leishmania infections, and gray mold disease.

Bacterial Infection

Cytokines & Chemokines

Venturicidin A (8-16 μg/mL; 24 h) enhances the activity of Gentamicin (HY-A0276A) against MDR isolates of MRSA, VRE, P. aeruginosa, A. baumannii, E. coli, and K. pneumoniae, with fractional inhibitory concentration indices below 0.5, but shows no enhancement against isolates carrying the ArmA ribosomal methyltransferase^[1].

Fungal Infection

Oxidative Stress

Venturicidin A in combination with Gentamicin (16-32 μg/mL; 0-24 h) exhibits rapid bactericidal activity against aminoglycoside-resistant MRSA C1014, reducing viable cells by >3 log CFU/mL within 4 h^[1].

Others

Venturicidin A does not inhibit the bifunctional aminoglycoside-modifying enzyme AAC (6′)-Ie-APH (2′′)-Ia, but instead acts as a Type 1b adjuvant through an indirect mechanism to enhance the effects of aminoglycosides^[1].
Venturicidin A (48 h) exhibits in vitro toxicity against human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells with an IC₅₀ of 31 μg/mL^[1].

Bacterial Infection

Mitochondrial Function

Venturicidin A is an inhibitor of ATP synthesis in MRSA C1014, depleting intracellular ATP levels by approximately 10-fold; and it induces membrane depolarization in MRSA C1014 in a dose-dependent manner^[1].

Bacterial Infection

Venturicidin A (VentA) (1.56-50 μg/mL; 5 days) effectively inhibits the mycelial growth of Botrytis cinerea on PDA medium, with an EC₅₀ of 1.08 μg/mL^[2].
Venturicidin A (1.08-12.5 μg/mL; 6-24 h) significantly inhibits Botrytis cinerea spore germination and germ tube elongation in a concentration-dependent manner; it also disrupts the morphology of spores and hyphae; it disrupts the integrity of the hyphal plasma membrane, leading to loss of cell viability^[2].
Venturicidin A (1.08-12.5 μg/mL; 12-24 hpi) impairs the penetration ability of Botrytis cinerea into onion epidermal cells^[2].

Oxidative Stress

Bacterial Infection

Venturicidin A (1.08-12.5 μg/mL; 2-10 h) severely disrupts the cell membrane integrity of Botrytis cinerea, leading to massive leakage of nucleic acids and proteins; it also increases MDA content in mycelia, indicating lipid peroxidation and membrane damage^[2].
Venturicidin A (1.08-12.5 μg/mL; 24 h) induces ROS accumulation in Botrytis cinerea hyphae; downregulates the expression of pathogenicity-related genes; and upregulates the expression of NADPH oxidase subunit genes^[2].

Fungal Infection

Venturicidin A (1.08-12.5 μg/mL; spray; once; 24 h before inoculation) inhibits spore germination and mycelial growth of Botrytis cinerea, disrupts fungal cell membrane integrity, induces ROS burst, and downregulates pathogenesis-related genes; it exhibits both protective and curative activity against tomato gray mold^[2].

Parasitic Infection

Venturicidin A exhibits high activity against Trypanosoma brucei brucei 2T1 BSF, Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense BSF, and Leishmania donovani promastigotes, axenic amastigotes, and intracellular amastigotes, but shows markedly reduced activity against Trypanosoma evansi STIB806 BSF, with IC₅₀ values of 21.49 nM, 5.05 nM, 24.10 nM, 2.28 nM, 267.6 nM, and 5260 nM, respectively^[3].

Parasitic Infection

Mitochondrial Function

Venturicidin A (21-172 nM; 24 h) treatment of Trypanosoma brucei brucei 2T1 bloodstream forms leads to collapse of the mitochondrial membrane potential and induces loss of kDNA^[3].

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
