Bacterial transferase MraY inhibitors: Synthesis and biological evaluation
摘要:
New inhibitors of the bacterial transferase MraY are described. Their structure is based on an aminoribosyl-O-uridine like scaffold, readily obtained in two key steps. The amino group can be coupled with proline or guanylated. Alternatively, these amino, prolinyl or guanidinyl groups can be introduced through a triazole linker. Biological evaluation of these compounds on MraY from Bacillus subtilis revealed interesting inhibitory activity for both amino compounds. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
