چکیده

Growth inhibition by the pantothenate analog N-pentylpantothenamide (N5-Pan) has been attributed to the accumulation of acyl carrier protein carrying a prosthetic group modified by incorporation of N5-Pan. This was attributed to an inability of the AcpH acyl carrier protein phosphodiesterase to cleave the N5-Pan-modified prosthetic group from the protein moiety. We report that AcpH readily removes the N5-Pan-modified prosthetic group both in vivo and in vitro and show that N5-Pan blocks coenzyme A synthesis.

Synthesis of silver nanoparticles using leaves aqueous extract of Nasturtium Officinale (NO) and its antibacterial activity

Biogenic reduction of silver ion to base metal is quite rapid, readily conducted at room temperature and pressure, and easily scaled up. Synthesis mediated by plant extracts is environmentally benign. The objective of this study was to synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) using leaves aqueous extract of Nasturtium Officinale R. Br. (NO) and its antibacterial activity. X-ray diffraction (X...

Synthesis of new piperazinyl quinolones and investigation of their in vitro antibacterial activities

  Quinolone antibacterial agents are currently used for the treatment of various bacterial infections. The nature of functional group at the 7 position of the quinolone ring system is known to have strong influence on the spectrum and extent of in vitro antibacterial activity. Accordingly, a series of N-L2- oxo-2-(2- furyl) and N-[2- oxyimino (2- furyl) ethyl] piperazinyl quinolone derivatives...
