Bacterial infections, including Methicillin resistant
Staphylococcus aureus
(MRSA) infections are a major health problem that has created a pressing need for new antibiotics. Pyridazinone, rhodanine, and pyrazolethione compounds effective inhibit the enzymatic activity of sortase A (srtA) found in gram positive bacteria are disclosed. A structure activity relationship (SAR) analysis led to the identification of several pyridazinone and pyrazolethione analogs that inhibit SrtA with IC
50
values in the sub-micromolar range. Compounds that inhibit the
S. aureus
SrtA sortase may function as potent anti-infective agents as this enzyme attaches virulence factors to the cell wall. Many of these molecules also inhibit the sortase enzyme from
B. anthracis
suggesting that they may be generalized sortase inhibitors.
The novel compounds, compositions, uses, formulations, medicaments, articles of manufacture provide improved materials, uses, and treatments useful in combating infectious disorders.
细菌感染,包括甲氧西林耐药金黄色葡萄球菌(MRSA)感染,是一个重大的健康问题,已经创造了对新抗生素的迫切需求。本文披露了吡啶并咪唑酮、罗丹宁和吡唑硫酮化合物,这些化合物有效抑制了革兰氏阳性细菌中的srtA酶活性。结构活性关系(SAR)分析导致了多个吡啶并咪唑酮和吡唑硫酮类似物的鉴定,这些类似物以亚微摩尔范围内的IC50值抑制SrtA。抑制S. aureus SrtA酶的化合物可能作为强效抗感染剂,因为该酶将毒力因子附着在细胞壁上。其中许多分子也抑制了B. anthracis的sortase酶,表明它们可能是广谱的sortase抑制剂。这些新型化合物、组合物、用途、配方、药品和制造品提供了改进的材料、用途和治疗,对于抗击传染性疾病非常有用。
