The binding of the polyenic antibiotic lucensomycin to native or modified human erythrocyte ghosts and to model membranes has been studied by monitoring the absorbance variations of the polyene at 320 nm. The non-steroidal components of the membranes (such as proteins and phospholipids) seem to affect the rate of the individual reaction steps leading to the formation of cholesterol-lucensomycin complexes rather than the ratio among these heterologous aggregates at equilibrium.

Abstract
The binding of the polyenic antibiotic lucensomycin to native or modified human erythrocyte ghosts and to model membranes has been studied by monitoring the absorbance variations of the polyene at 320 nm. The non-steroidal components of the membranes (such as proteins and phospholipids) seem to affect the rate of the individual reaction steps leading to the formation of cholesterol-lucensomycin complexes rather than the ratio among these heterologous aggregates at equilibrium.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
