cis-3-Indoleacrylic acid

CAS: 29953-72-8

The compound cis-3-Indoleacrylic acid acts as a nematicidal agent and can be isolated from Streptomyces youssoufiensis YMF3.862. It functions as a V-ATPase inhibitor, reducing both the expression and enzymatic activity of V-ATPase. Additionally, cis-3-Indoleacrylic acid causes swelling in Meloidogyne incognita larvae and notable cracking on the cuticle surface [LC50: 16.31 μg/mL]. It also inhibits the accumulation of H+ within nematodes.
