MreB Perturbing Compound A22 hydrochloride (Standard)

MreB Perturbing Compound A22 hydrochloride (Standard) is the analytical standard for MreB Perturbing Compound A22 hydrochloride (HY-118773). This product is intended for research and analytical applications. MreB Perturbing Compound A22 hydrochloride (A22 hydrochloride) is a reversible MreB inhibitor and antimicrobial agent that exhibits bacteriostatic activity against Escherichia coli, with low activity against Gram-positive bacteria. MreB Perturbing Compound A22 hydrochloride rapidly and reversally delocalizes MreB from the helical/circular structures in cells, impairs MreB function, and reduces the binding of MreB to the chromosomal region proximal to the replication origin. MreB Perturbing Compound A22 hydrochloride alters the cell morphology of caulobacters to round/lemon-shaped, slows caulobacter growth, blocks their cell division, and induces the formation of spherical morphology, asymmetric division, and anucleate cells in Escherichia coli. MreB Perturbing Compound A22 hydrochloride is used for studies related to bacterial rod-shaped morphology determination, chromosome segregation, and cell division mechanisms.
