General description

Quinaldic acid is also referred as quinoline-2-carboxylic acid. Microwave-assisted preparation of substituted anilides of quinaldic acid has been reported. It inhibits the oxidation of pyruvate, α-ketoglutarate, glutamate and citrate in rat liver mitochondria. Quinaldic acid is a metabolite of tryptophan degradation and inhibits the gluconeogenesis in perfused livers.

A simple technique has been devised that allows direct plate selection of tetracycline-sensitive clones from a predominantly tetracycline-resistant population. The technique is especially useful in genetic methodologies based on the use of tetracycline resistance transposons, such as Tn10. Potential uses

Specifically 13C-labeled quinoline-2-carboxylate derivatives were synthesized from quinoline and used to study the biosynthesis of thiostrepton in a strain of Streptomyces laurentii. 13C NMR analysis of thiostrepton recovered after feeding methyl (RS)-[11-13C]-4-(1-hydroxyethyl)quinoline-2-carboxylate or methyl [11-13C]-4-acetylquinoline-2-carboxylate showed conclusively that these compounds

Certain products of tryptophan metabolism interact with excitatory amino acid receptors to produce or protect against excitotoxicity. In this study, the action of several tryptophan metabolites, yielded by the kynurenine pathway, on cortical cholinergic toxicity was evaluated following focal injection
