Inhibitors of the bacterial cell wall biosynthesis enzyme MurC
摘要:
A series of phosphinate transition-state analogues of the L-alanine adding enzyme (MurC) of bacterial peptidoglycan biosynthesis was prepared and tested as inhibitors of the Escherichia coli enzyme. Compound 4 was identified as a potent inhibitor of MurC from Escherichia coli with an IC50 Of 49 nM. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
