FD The Company of Biologists Ltd SP 1 OP 8 VO 200 IS 1 A1 Dröse, S A1 Altendorf, K YR 1997 UL http://jeb.biologists.org/content/200/1/1.abstract AB Bafilomycins and concanamycins, two groups of the plecomacrolide-defined class of macrolide antibiotics, have recently been recognized as important tools for studying the physiological role of vacuolar-type, proton-translocating ATPases (V-ATPases) and ATPases with phosphorylated states (P-ATPases) in animal and plant cells as well as in yeast, fungi and bacteria. The following review will give an account of the classification and function of these antibiotics.
