12-Methyltetradecanoic acid (12-methylmyristic acid) is an anteiso-C(15)-fatty acid used in studies on the properties and functions of medium-chain anteiso-fatty acids. 12-methyltetradecanoic acid is studied to understand its antibacterial properties. 12-methyltetradecanoic acid represses the extracellular production of surfactants required for swarming motility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is known to produce surfactants that are involved in its swarming motility behavior, such as rhamnolipids and their precursors-3-(3-hydroxyalkanoyloxy)-alkanoic acids (HAAs). In P. aeruginosa PAO1, swarming motility is inhibited by some fatty acids, including branched-chain fatty acids and

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is capable of moving by swimming, swarming, and twitching motilities. In this study, we investigated the effects of fatty acids on Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 motilities. A branched-chain fatty acid (BCFA)--12-methyltetradecanoic acid (anteiso-C15:0)--has slightly repressed flagella-driven swimming motility and
