Quinoline-4-carboxylic Acid for small therapeutic agent compounds.
ChEBI: Quinoline-4-carboxylic acid is a quinolinemonocarboxylic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a quinoline-4-carboxylate.
4-Quinolinecarboxylic acid showed anti-tumor activity against L1210 leukemia and B16 melanoma.
The bacterium which is isolated from soil enrichment
culture degrades quinoline-4-carboxylic acid to give
the two identified metabolites 2-oxo-1,2-
dihydroquinoline-4-carboxylic acid and 8-hydroxy-2-
oxo-2H-benzopyran-4-carboxylic acid.
