Ionophores are compounds which can facilitate the migration of ions across biological membranes. Ions, being electrically charged, cannot by themselves cross the hydrophobic interior of biological membranes.

Ionophores usually have a polar inner moiety, and a non-polar outer moiety which can span or cross the hydrophobic interior of the membrane. Ionophore function usually affects metallic cations.

There are two types of ionophores: Channel-formers and Carriers. Channel formers are usually large proteins. They usually function by incorporating themselves into the cell-membrane, creating a polar “tube” across the membrane, enabling ions pass through. Carriers are usually smaller molecules, with a non-polar exterior and a polar interior.

The polar interior can reversibly bind an ion, effectively wrapping the electric charge of the ion within a non-polar envelope. The non-polar envelope can then cross the interior of the membrane, carrying the ion with it.

Ionophores can interfere with the balance of ion concentrations across membranes. Maintenance of ionic gradients across the cell membrane is an essential biological function. In interfering with such ionic gradients, ionophores often display antibiotic properties. Several novel works have been published, where natural ionophore compounds, when fed to cattle in liquid, solid or medicinal form, increased calf weight gain in correlation to the amount given.

Description

A polyether potassium ionophore. Salinomycin is potent antimicrobial, it acts against Gram-positive bacteria, among which there are some hard to treat strains, for example  methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis. 

As an anticancer candidate drug, Salinomycin has been shown by Piyush Gupta et al. of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Broad Institute to kill breast cancer stem cells in mice at least 100 times more effectively than the anti-cancer drug paclitaxel. The study screened 16,000 different chemical compounds and found that only a small subset, including salinomycin and etoposide, targeted cancer stem cells responsible for metastasis and relapse.

Applications

Natural enniatins occure as a mixture of several related analogs, known as "Enniatins", or "Enniatin complex". 

Enniatins occure in nature in the mycelia of some Fusarium species. Being cyclic and hydrophopic molecules, enniatins are able to act as ionophores. More recently their effects on acyl-CoA cholesterol transferase, transporters and the selectivity of their antitumor action have received more focus. Enniatin has not previously been available for investigation.

Description

Enniatins are a family of depsipeptides produced by several species of Fusaria. Enniatins have initially been shown to act as ionophores. Later, their effects on acyl-CoA cholesterol transferase, ABC-transporters and the selectivity of their antitumor action are emphasized in the research.
