Background

Isolated from Streptomyces griseus, bafilomycin A1 is a macrolide antibiotic that reversibly inhibits late phase autophagy (1,2). By inhibiting H+-ATPase, bafilomycin A1 prevents re-acidification of synaptic vesicles following exocytosis and thereby blocks fusion of autophagosomes and lysosomes (2-5). Research studies demonstrate that bafilomycin A1 can also inhibit cell proliferation (4).
