Description

Vanillin is a natural compound that belongs to the group of phenylpropanoids. It has been found to be an inhibitor molecule of infectious diseases such as HIV, M. tuberculosis, and influenza A virus. Vanillin has been shown to inhibit the polymerase chain reaction by binding to DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, which prevents transcription and replication. Vanillin also inhibits bacterial growth by binding to bacterial 16S ribosomal RNA and inhibiting protein synthesis. Vanillin has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). This compound also inhibits the production of prostaglandins, which may be due to its ability to form hydrogen bonding interactions with neighboring molecules in the cell membrane.
