Abstract
Focused on Mtb: A facile hydroxyindole carboxylic acid based focused amide library was designed to target both the PTP active site and a unique nearby pocket for enhanced affinity and selectivity. HTS of the library led to the identification of a highly potent and selective inhibitor, 11 a, of mPTPB, an essential virulence factor for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Compound 11 a shows high cellular activity and is capable of reversing the altered immune responses induced by mPTPB in macrophages.Entities:
