Roles Classification
Biological Roles:
antibacterial agent  A substance (or active part thereof) that kills or slows the growth of bacteria.
antibacterial drug  A drug used to treat or prevent bacterial infections.
topoisomerase IV inhibitor  A topoisomerase inhibitor that inhibits DNA topoisomerase IV, which catalyses ATP-dependent breakage of both strands of DNA, passage of the unbroken strands through the breaks, and rejoining of the broken strands.
EC 5.99.1.3 [DNA topoisomerase (ATP-hydrolysing)] inhibitor  A topoisomerase inhibitor that inhibits DNA topoisomerase (ATP-hydrolysing), EC 5.99.1.3 (also known as topoisomerase II and as DNA gyrase), which catalyses ATP-dependent breakage of both strands of DNA, passage of the unbroken strands through the breaks, and rejoining of the broken strands.
DNA synthesis inhibitor  Any substance that inhibits the synthesis of DNA.
antimicrobial agent  A substance that kills or slows the growth of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans.
antimicrobial agent  A substance that kills or slows the growth of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans.
antimicrobial agent  A substance that kills or slows the growth of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans.
antimicrobial agent  A substance that kills or slows the growth of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans.
antimicrobial agent  A substance that kills or slows the growth of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoans.
Applications:
antiinfective agent  A substance used in the prophylaxis or therapy of infectious diseases.
antiglaucoma drug  Any drug which can be used to prevent or alleviate glaucoma, a disease in which the optic nerve is damaged, resulting in progressive, irreversible loss of vision. It is often, though not always, associated with increased pressure of the fluid in the eye.
antihypertensive agent  Any drug used in the treatment of acute or chronic vascular hypertension regardless of pharmacological mechanism.
anti-inflammatory agent  Any compound that has anti-inflammatory effects.
anti-ulcer drug  One of various classes of drugs with different action mechanisms used to treat or ameliorate peptic ulcer or irritation of the gastrointestinal tract.
antibacterial drug  A drug used to treat or prevent bacterial infections.
ophthalmology drug  Any compound used for the treatment of eye conditions or eye diseases.
