Kringles (medicine) and oligomycins (medicine)


Kringles (medicine)


kringles
Triple-looped protein Domains linked by disulfide bonds. These common structural motifs, so-named for their resemblance to danish pastries known as kringlers, play a role in binding membranes, proteins, and phospholipids as well as in regulating proteolysis. Kringles are also present in coagulation-related and fibrinolytic proteins and Other plasma proteinases.


oligomycins (medicine)


oligomycins
<chemical> A closely related group of toxic substances elaborated by various strains of streptomyces. They are 26-membered macrolides with lactone moieties and double bonds and inhibit various atpases, causing uncoupling of phosphorylation from mitochondrial respiration. Used as tools in cytochemistry. Some specific oligomycins are rutamycin, peliomycin, and botrycidin (formerly venturicidin x).

Pharmacological action: antibiotics, macrolide, enzyme inhibitors, uncoupling agents.
