BODIPY™ FL vancomycin, which contains a single BODIPY™ dye per vancoymycin molecule, is a green-fluorescent analog of this important antibiotic, which is active against gram-positive bacteria, including entereococci.
The fungal metabolite brefeldin A (BFA) has multiple targets in cells and has proven valuable for dissecting the cellular processes, including vesicle formation and kinesin distribution, involved in exporting newly synthesized proteins.
