Description:4-Iodocinnamic acid is a mesomorphic, supramolecular organic acid that has potent cytotoxicity against cancer cells. It is also an analogue of the natural product cinnamic acid. 4-Iodocinnamic acid binds to the active site of the enzyme DNA polymerase and inhibits DNA synthesis by preventing the incorporation of deoxynucleotide triphosphates into synthesized DNA chains. The compound has been shown to have strong antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, and Bacillus cereus. 4-Iodocinnamic acid is also an effective inhibitor of cancer cell proliferation and induces apoptosis in these cells.
