Product Data
Biological target:
Phenylacetic acid is associated with the inhibition of p21(ras) isoprenylation.
In vitro activity:
The potential antibacterial mechanism of PAA (phenylacetic acid) against A. tumefaciens T-37 strain was determined by relative conductivity, leakage of nucleic acids, proteins, and soluble total sugars, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), and reactive oxygen species (ROS). PAA showed good antibacterial activity against strain A. tumefaciens T-37 with IC50 of 0.8038 mg/mL. These data suggested that after treatment with PAA, the relative conductivity, nucleic acid, protein, and total soluble sugar of T-37 were increased significantly compared with the chloramphenicol treatment group and the negative treatment group. The results showed that PAA can destroy cell membrane integrity, damage cell structures, affect cell metabolism, and inhibit protein synthesis to exert an antibacterial effect.
