Vanillyl alcohol is a chemical compound that has been identified as a gene product in the bacterium Bacillus subtilis. It is an aminopentol and may be synthesized from the amino acid sequence L-valine, L-alanine, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate. Vanillyl alcohol has been shown to inhibit bacterial growth by binding to alcohol dehydrogenases, which are involved in the breakdown of alcohols in bacteria. Vanillyl alcohol also inhibits xylene degradation through its reaction with naphthalene to form vanillylmandelic acid, which can inhibit the activity of aldehyde dehydrogenase in bacteria.
