A series of novel derivatives of 4H-pyrido[1,2-]pyrimidine, 1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,5-naphthyridine and 1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,6-naphthyridine were prepared and their biological activity was compared with that of nalidixic acid. The in vitro antibacterial activity of the tested compounds was lower than that of nalidixic acid except for two agents, 1b and 2c, with a higher activity against Enterococcus faecalis. The compounds were tested for their ability to cure four plasmids from two species of Enterobacteriaceae. The derivatives eliminated three plasmids (pKM101, pBR322, F'lac) at one-half or one-quarter of the minimal inhibitory concentration. Plasmid RP4 was unaffected by the treatment. None of these compounds showed better antichloroplast activity than nalidixic acid.

They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS. Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D004755 Enterobacteriaceae A family of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria that do not form endospores. Its organisms are distributed worldwide with some being saprophytes and others being plant and animal parasites. Many species are of considerable economic importance due to their pathogenic effects on agriculture and livestock. Coliform Bacilli,Enterobacteria,Ewingella,Leclercia,Paracolobactrum,Sodalis
