Monazomycin is a macrocylic polyol lactone isolated from several species of Streptoverticillium. It is active against Gram positive bacteria with weak Gram negative activity. In solution, monazomycin exists as hydrophilic clusters which, when adsorbed onto a lipid bilayer, can induce channel formation. It is an important bioprobe for understanding membrane channels.
