Product Information
5-Methoxy-3-methyl-1H-indole is an oxygenated aromatic amine that is produced as a phytoalexin. It has been shown to inhibit the growth of gram negative bacteria, such as Salmonella and E. coli, by inhibiting the synthesis of proteins required for cellular respiration. 5-Methoxy-3-methyl-1H-indole also inhibits the activity of an enzyme called phospholipase A2, which is responsible for the hydrolysis of lipid molecules in cell membranes. This inhibition prevents the release of arachidonic acid from phospholipids, leading to a decrease in prostaglandins and leukotrienes. 5-Methoxy-3-methyl-1H indole has also been shown to have antioxidant properties due to its ability to scavenge free radicals.
