multi-drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) throughout the world has prompted a search for new, safer and more active agents against tuberculosis. Based on studies of the biosynthesis of mycobacterial cell wall polysaccharides, octyl 5-O-(alpha-D-arabinofuranosyl)-alpha-D-arabinofuranoside analogues were synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors for M. tuberculosis and Mycobacterium avium. A cell free
耐多药结核分枝杆菌(MTB)在世界各地的出现促使人们寻找新的,更安全,更有效的抗结核药物。基于对分枝杆菌细胞壁多糖的生物合成的研究,合成了辛基5-O-(α-D-阿拉伯呋喃糖基)-α-D-阿拉伯呋喃糖苷类似物,并将其评估为结核分枝杆菌和鸟分枝杆菌的抑制剂。无细胞测定系统已用于评估这些二糖作为分枝杆菌阿拉伯糖基转移酶活性的底物。
