Antimicrobial agent-55
Antimicrobial agent-55 is a ciprofloxacin-derived multi-target antibacterial agent (Antibacterial) that inhibits E. coli DNA gyrase, S. aureus topoisomerase IV and LpxC with IC50 values of 0.315, 1.553 and 0.108 μM, respectively. The MIC of Antimicrobial agent-55 against E. coli ATCC 8739 is 0.27 μM. Antimicrobial agent-55 induces bacterial DNA damage and abnormal cell division. Antimicrobial agent-55 is applicable to studies on multi-target antibacterial mechanisms, infections caused by Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and bacterial drug resistance.

Biological Activity
Description
IC50 & Target
[1]|
DNA gyrase 0.315 μM (IC50, E. coli) |
topoisomerase IV 1.553 μM (IC50, S. aureus ) |
LpxC 0.108 μM (IC50) |
In Vitro
Antimicrobial agent-55 induces topoisomerase-inhibiting phenotypes in *Bacillus subtilis* 2020, including cell elongation, nucleoid condensation, abnormal FtsZ ring localization, and membrane foci[1].
Antimicrobial agent-55 activates the SOS DNA damage response in Bacillus subtilis UG10, which is evidenced by the formation of RecA aggregates[1].
Antimicrobial agent-55 inhibits E. coli DNA gyrase, S. aureus topoisomerase IV, and LpxC, with IC50 values of 0.315, 1.553, and 0.108 μM, respectively[1].
Antimicrobial agent-55 (20 days) exhibits extremely low potential for the development of bacterial resistance in Staphylococcus aureus, with only a slight 2- to 3-fold increase in MIC observed within 20 days[1].
