Description Antibiotic. Isomeric to thiotropocin. Antibacterial. Active against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Antifungal and anti-nematodical. Shows antitumor activity. Cytotoxic against selected mammalian neuronal cell lines. Bacterial signal substance. Acts as potent membrane antiporter for protons in exchange for cytoplasmic cations (e. g. K+). TDA collapses the cellular proton motive force (PMF) by affecting the transmembrane proton gradient but not the membrane potential.
