Beschreibung

Ethyl isocyanatoacetate (EICA) is a fatty acid that has been shown to have antimicrobial activity. It forms coordination complexes with malonic acid and fatty acids, which inhibit the synthesis of proteins by binding to the ribosomes. The antimicrobial properties of EICA are due to its ability to disrupt protein synthesis in gram-negative organisms. EICA also inhibits locomotor activity and levels of human liver enzymes. It has ether linkages as well as sulfonic acid groups, which make it more soluble in water than other fatty acids.
EICA is metabolized by hepatic lipase into methylmalonic acid and ethylmalonic acid, which can lead to metabolic disorders such as alkaptonuria.
