Oligomycin A [579-13-5]
Katalog-Nummer A5588-5mg
Size : 5mg
Marke : APExBIO Technology
Oligomycin A (CAS 579-13-5) is a potent inhibitor of mitochondrial ATP synthase, specifically targeting the proton channel of the enzyme's F0 subunit. By blocking proton translocation, oligomycin A effectively halts ATP production via oxidative phosphorylation, thereby substantially reducing electron transport chain activity and cellular oxygen consumption. Experimental studies in cancer cell models demonstrate oligomycin A's ability to rapidly suppress mitochondrial respiration at low concentrations, causing significant metabolic shifts toward glycolysis. Consequently, oligomycin A is frequently utilized in biomedical research to elucidate mitochondrial bioenergetics, apoptosis pathways, and metabolic adaptations in cancer.
