The first targeted inhibitors of an essential M. tuberculosis cell wall lipase, Rv3802c, are described. Lead compounds exhibited nanomolar inhibition of the enzyme, and encouraging antibacterial activity against M. tuberculosis in vitro, supporting Rv3802c as a novel TB drug target.
首次描述了一种针对结核分枝杆菌细胞壁脂肪酶Rv3802c的重要靶向抑制剂。领先化合物展示了对该酶的纳摩尔级抑制作用,并在体外对结核分枝杆菌表现出令人鼓舞的抗菌活性,支持将Rv3802c作为一种新型结核病药物靶点。
