Abstract
Herein we report the synthesis of symmetrical C-linked and pseudo-symmetrical O-linked disaccharides structurally related to Araf motifs present in the cell wall of MTB. Their activity in a competition-based arabinosyltransferase assay using [14C]-DPA as the glycosyl donor is also presented. In addition, in vitro inhibitory activity for the disaccharides was determined in a colorimetric broth microdilution assay system against MTB H37Ra and Mycobacterium avium.Entities:
