Descripción

General description

Monensin, is an antibiotic produced by Streptomyces cinnamonensis.[1] It is a naturally occurring ionophore. It has an acyclic polyether sequence and a terminal carboxylic acid moiety.[2] It has the ability to effectively carry protons and cations through the cell membrane[3], hence it adequately harbours Na⁺ into a characteristic pseudoactivity, thereby effectively transporting it across a bio-membrane. It also forms stable complexes with k⁺, Rb⁺ and Ag⁺; hence it can be chemically modified to form cation-binding sites, thereby attaining transport functionalities.[2]
