The antifungal activity and membrane-disruptive action of dioscin extracted from Dioscorea nipponica.

Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1828 , 1153-1158, (2012)

Dioscin is a kind of steroidal saponin isolated from the root bark of wild yam Dioscorea nipponica. We investigated the antifungal effect of dioscin against different fungal strains and its antifungal mechanism(s) in Candida albicans cells. Using the propidiu...

Generation of a membrane potential by Lactococcus lactis through aerobic electron transport.

J. Bacteriol. 189 , 5203-5209, (2007)

Lactococcus lactis, a facultative anaerobic lactic acid bacterium, is known to have an increased growth yield when grown aerobically in the presence of heme. We have now established the presence of a functional, proton motive force-generating electron transfe...

Monitoring of real changes of plasma membrane potential by diS-C(3)(3) fluorescence in yeast cell suspensions.

J. Bioenerg. Biomembr. 44 , 559-569, (2012)

The fluorescent dye 3,3'-dipropylthiadicarbocyanine, diS-C(3)(3), is a suitable probe to monitor real changes of plasma membrane potential in yeast cells which are too small for direct membrane potential measurements with microelectrodes. A method presented i...
