Antibacterialagent 271 is an antimicrobial compound that significantly inhibits Escherichia coli, with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 2.2 µM. It disrupts bacterial membrane integrity, reducing metabolic activity. By binding to DNA grooves, it inhibits replication and induces reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, leading to bacterial death. Antibacterialagent 271 shows considerable potential in combating bacterial infections.
