Rationally Designed Nucleoside Antibiotics That Inhibit Siderophore Biosynthesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
摘要:
A rationally designed nucleoside inhibitor of Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth (MIC99 = 0.19 mu M) that disrupts siderophore biosynthesis was identified. The activity is due to inhibition of the adenylate-forming enzyme MbtA which is involved in biosynthesis of the mycobactins.
