Description:Nalidixic acid ethyl ester is a chemical compound that functions as a pro-drug antibacterial agent, specifically belonging to the quinolone class of antibiotics. It is synthesized from nalidixic acid, which is derived from the older synthetic derivative class of naphthyridines. Nalidixic acid ethyl ester exhibits its antibacterial properties through the inhibition of DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV. These are essential enzymes for bacterial DNA replication, transcription, and repair, leading to the disruption of DNA synthesis in susceptible bacterial cells.
