ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY TOOLS & SERVICESConcanamycin A is a plecomacrolide antibiotic that has been found in Streptomyces.1 It is active against S. cerevisiae, S. sake, A. citri, P. citrinum, and P. oryzae (MICs = <0.39, <0.39, <0.39, 1.56, and 25 μg/ml, respectively). Concanamycin A inhibits vacuolar H+-ATPase (V-ATPase; EC50 = ~2.1-2.3 μM).2 It also decreases perforin levels in CD8+ OE4 cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs).3 Concanamycin A (100 μM) inhibits concanavalin A-induced thymidine incorporation by 99% in isolated mouse splenic lymphocytes.1 It also prevents influenza virus entry into MDCK cells when used at a concentration of 0.8 μM.4
